CHICAGO (WLS) -- Many people are going all out with their holiday decorations this year to spread some extra cheer during the pandemic.

ABC7 was in search of the best homes in the Chicago area all decked out in holiday lights. This year's winner is Todd and Jen Scheuerman of Elmhurst!

The Scheuerman's are big Disney fans and actually finished second in last year's contest.
