Young said the video, which has since garnered nearly 80,000 views, was originally intended for a select audience to complement their holiday card.

“We made this postcard that we sent out to close family and friends and put a QR code on there so people could scan it on their phone and get the video as a bonus piece of content,” Young told Global News on Wednesday.

“One of my friends was like ‘you should put that on YouTube’ so I uploaded it and it went crazy.”

Young said the minute-long video took under an hour to make and almost two hours to edit. Although they have made videos as a family together in the past, this was their first themed project, she said.
