Christmas might come but once a year, but for former "Happy Days" star Scott Baio, his wife Renee and 8-year-old-daughter Bailey, there's 12 months of planning – and three weeks of hard work on Renee's part – that goes into turning their Los Angeles home into a Christmas wonderland. The couple love Christmas and each year they deck their halls with Christmas tree after Christmas tree featuring unique themes.
"We start at Halloween and continue through Christmas," Renee tells HNGN in an exclusive interview. "'The Nightmare Before Christmas' and 'Alice In Wonderland' are Bailey's favorites, so we start with the 'Nightmare' tree on the piano at Halloween, and everything else expands from there."
The Baio holiday decoration extravaganza started after the couple married in 2007 and took on greater meaning following Bailey's birth later that year. "Having Bailey definitely took this to another level," Scott tells HNGN.
"Five years ago we moved into this house, and I promised Bailey Christmas would be magical," adds Renee. It's something she has delivered ever since.
"I usually ask she take it back a little, only as it's so much work," Scott says. "But Renee loves it. It is really time- consuming for her ,and I see it go up in stages, but it's always spectacular and so nice when it's all done. How could you not be in the Christmas spirit?"
