A home in Smithtown is decked out for the holidays with an elaborate display that has a "National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation" theme.
It features the famous station wagon that the Griswold’s drove cross-country and mannequins of the Griswold's themselves.
Jason Orsini, the homeowner, says it took him three months to set up.
"Enjoy the moment with your kids and your family and your community because when time goes on, and you're so wrapped up in this moment. When you can get involved with community and family and realize it's about giving back to those people that don't have what we have, it's so rewarding,” says Orsini.
The Orsinis are also asking people to donate new, unopened toys that they will donate to Stony Brook Children’s Hospital.
