SUMMARY: Debbie Belt of Hutto, Texas, has spent over a decade building an expansive Christmas village in her home, starting with a Harley Davidson village shop inspired by her love of motorcycles. After purchasing a collection from the late Congressman Ken Gray, her village has grown with miniature replicas, including themed homes for Halloween and Christmas. Her son contributes by 3D printing figurines, adding extra charm. Setting up the display, which includes a train and light setups, takes weeks, and her grandson delights in turning it on. The village has become a cherished part of their holiday tradition.
