Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like never having to deal with Bank of America again.

After the success of his iPhone video editing app Videoshop, Joe Riquelme decided to give his parents the ultimate gift by paying off their mortgage for Christmas this year.

In the video, Riquelme hands his mother an envelope which contains a letter from the bank notifying the couple that their mortgage has been paid in full and a cute note that says "Your house is paid off. Merry Xmas."

Once the family realizes what their son has done, a flood of joyful tears and hugging ensues.
