Looking Ahead
As the video the girls made documenting the renovation draws to an end, they try and explain to their overwhelmed parents that they wanted to surprise them with the best Christmas present they had ever gotten. Looking at the project in its entirety, especially the before and after shots, it becomes clear what an enormous undertaking the girls had set for themselves.
Chip and Karen were not only happy with their new house but filled with pride at the amazing young women they had raised.
Shining With Gratitude
Chip and Karen could barely comprehend what had prompted their children to set out on such a massive, transformative undertaking. The girls had taken care of everything. The master bedroom was completely renovated, including the sparkling tub and shower, and a fresh coat of paint.
All the accessories had also been replaced and matched the style of each room. The Schoonover parents couldn’t believe it, but more surprises were still in store.
An Open Invitation
Karen and Chip were still reeling as the girls led them from the master bedroom into the guest bedroom. The room was completely redone and matched the rest of the house in color scheme and design. As in the other rooms, all the curtains, bedsheets and comforters were new.
The surprised parents felt enormous pride in their incredibly considerate and caring daughters. Clearly the girls had spent not only time and sweat on the project, but also a considerable amount of money.
The Internet Takes Note
Not long after the surprising revelation, Hollie posted the video of the remodel on her YouTube account. It was actually the very first video she had ever posted, but that didn’t change the attention it received. The views kept going up steadily, beginning with hundreds and then thousands of viewers checking out the touching story.
After a few months the Christmas surprise video had 115 thousand hits and the momentum was still growing.
Discovering Their Fame
Hollie had aspirations of becoming a household name, but she never thought she would become famous for the surprise Christmas present she made for her parents with her sisters. As the video made its way around the globe, countless people wanted to share this amazing story.
Haley, Hollie, Heather and Halice had no idea that the video was blowing up, and so was their story along with it. The sisters couldn’t contain their excitement at the amount of people their story was touching.
