An Alterra home was the far-and-away winner of this year�s Holiday Homes on Parade contest after 32,000 people voted for their favorite yuletide light show in town.�
The winning home at 44781 W. Applegate Road won with 10,453 votes, nearly 33 percent.�
Homeowner Crystal McCauley had one word to describe her reaction to being crowned the big winner: �Surprised.��
She and her mother, Deedee Owen, spent six to eight hours a day, four days a week, putting up elaborate decorations to get their Island of Misfit Toys-themed display up and running. It comes complete with a merry-go-round of Teddy Bears that her daughters loaned for the season.�
Asked if she had any idea why she earned more than 10,000 votes, she bluntly replied, �I don�t know.��
McCauley wins $250 in gift cards and cash from local sponsors.�
This year, 40 homes entered their dazzling lights and sparkling holiday decorations in the contest that InMaricopa and the city of Maricopa joined in co-sponsoring for the first time.�
A home at 44255 W. Sedona Trail garnered 7,919 votes and came in second place. The bronze medalists at 43483 W. Chisolm Drive received 3,606 votes.�
