Need something to get you into the holiday spirit? Look no further. The Orgill family from Highland, Utah has you covered.
For the past six years, this loving and energetic family has been producing Christmas dance videos just in time for the holiday season. Each year, it’s clear that their practice pays off because every video outdoes the last one. This year’s Christmas dance routine is no exception.
The Orgill family consists of eight siblings (yes, 8 siblings!), two parents, three in-laws, three nieces, and, of course — three dogs. With a family that large, it’s easy to understand why they had to think of ways to keep everyone entertained. Why not make amazing YouTube videos?
Their 6th annual Christmas dance video was recently released, and it’s brought holiday cheer to hundreds of thousands of people so far.
Ammon Orgill says that he and his family have been entertaining themselves by creating dance routines since all of the siblings were little. It was a great way for the kids to burn off some energy while discovering creativity and spending time with the entire family.
“Our family has actually loved making videos together since we were very young,” Orgill told KSL.com back in 2015. “Each year has gotten a bit more elaborate, involving more planning than the year before. And more family members have been involved each year after seeing how much fun we had the previous year.”
This year, the family decided to set the video to Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me.” Each family member is wearing a festive Christmas sweater.
Since the family members vary in age, their choreography was catered to everyone’s skill level. And, of course, since the moment it was uploaded, the internet has absolutely fallen in love with it. The comments on the family’s YouTube account are full of praise and inspiration.
The Orgill family’s previous videos amassed millions of views, and this one is sure to follow. Even though it’s only been online for a couple of weeks, it’s already been viewed over 500,000 times. The best thing about their videos is their positive, happy attitudes and love toward one another. It’s infectious!
“The really great thing about our family — and that our parents really need to be given credit for — is that we know how to put these differences aside and just love each other,” Orgill said in 2015. “We would all do anything for each other, and I think that love and togetherness really shows in our video. In fact, our parents have a quote hanging on their wall that really describes our family well: ‘We may not have it all together, but together we have it all.'”
This happy, loving family embodies the holiday spirit, and their video below is definitely an inspiration to us all.
