It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. For Kelly Fitzsimmons, the founder and owner of Light Up Your Holidays, this is the busiest time of year. Her company has been decorating Chicago-area houses for the holidays for over 20 years. Fitzsimmons says this holiday season might be a little different, because the pandemic is still keeping some people at home and because of potential supply chain issues affecting what holiday decorations are available. Fitzsimmons she prepared ahead of time is ready to decorate lots of houses this season.
