The charming town, along with local craftsman Caleb Colton, pulls on both Wendy and Jackson, who even registers himself for school in a bid to get his mom to move them there permanently. She and her 12-year-old son Jackson move in-temporarily, she reminds him-in order to do the work themselves, even though Christmas is coming.
