The footage is a roller coaster ride across glorious, colorful, and noisy Christmas traditions. It opens with Christmas Eve and the two girls, Molly and Riley, the scout elves’ last time before their ‘return to the North Pole.’ Morning is of the children joyfully screaming, wrapping paper flying everywhere, and the family’s dog, Owen, hilariously trying to take a cookie from the plate meant for Santa. Best is when Molly reveals her wonderful gift of a guitar signed by Taylor Swift, which literally leaves her quiet. Ali Manno shared the video stating that she avoids social media on Christmas since she wants to be totally with her kids, and that this video is a present from Kevin that the family cherishes.
The video post was met with a wave of praises, most of which appreciated the unit of the family and Kevin’s skills in editing. ‘Looks like the perfect day! Merry Christmas!’ one person commented, catching the general mood. Another user commented, ‘Wow that was awesome!!!! It was just magical to see. @kevinmanno those video editing skills are just great!’
The charming details in the video sparked specific discussions. There were those who considered the dog’s antics as the funniest acts. ‘Owen trying to steal lol,’ one user typed along with laughing emojis. To which another one said, ‘Owen is the cutest! Love him! He’s just like a puppy sneaking a cookie!!’ The present range that topped from very low costing gifts to the very luxurious ones also drew comments. ‘Ranch Doritos then a T Swift signed guitar 😳,’ said one user, highlighting the fun gap in the gifts. A different user was very curious about the guitar and its background, inviting Ali Manno to reply in the comments where she was pleading if she could not tell the whole tale later on, being ‘able to get it and help a really good cause.’
However, most of the comments were praising the family’s holiday spirit, there were some that were a little reflective. ‘Wishing more families had Christmas 🎄 like that. Happy Holidays,’ one person guessed. Another one gave a gentle reminder amidst the gift giving, quietly asking: ‘Hope you also celebrated the birth of Jesus.’

For Ali and Kevin Manno, this annual video project has turned into a significant part of their family tradition, the way to stop the hectic holidays and keep the supposed miracle of their little ones. As one commentator remarked, ‘They will remember these days forever.’ Indeed, by sharing this part of her life with the followers, Ali Manno was able to invite them to the Christmas party full of fun, surprise, and the simple but deep happiness of being together. The reaction implies that the most relatable content is sometimes not the one revolving around conflict or glamour but the one showing the mess and magic of family holidays that are universal. This focus on family is also seen in Ali Manno’s annual Halloween costume tradition. The family’s creative spirit extends to home projects, like the easy DIY project to transform their garage gym she did with her husband. Their Halloween costumes have even included a fun transformation into ‘Back to the Future’ characters. Beyond family activities, Ali also values friendship, as shown in her heartfelt tribute celebrating Kaley Cuoco’s 40th birthday.
