The Epic Surprise

When finals came to an end Nathan came straight back to Arizona. The day he left I only got to see him for a short second because I had plans I was going to be late for in Orem. 
Well here's the thing Nathan didn't know that on Cyber Monday I asked him mom if it would be okay to come down to Arizona Christmas Eve day to surprise Nathan for two weeks together. Well she said it would be fine. Nathan thought that I would be flying in on New Year's Eve. I had a really hard time keeping the big surprise from him but some how he didn't even realize that was my plan at all. 
I thought I was going to die Christmas Eve morning because of course Utah got snow...
My flight could of gotten cancelled and I wouldn't be able to surprise Nathan... Which was the big present I had talked up a lot to him in the previous weeks. 
As I was packing Nathan decided to FB message me... his very last comment to me was "well have fun talking with her! talk to you soon!" Oh my goodness for sure he knows that I'm coming down. I thought my big surprise was ruined. 
The flight alone was horrible. Got delayed, had to sit in a cold airplane why they defrosted the wings...
Sue comes and picked me up, Nathan was at a Christmas party. Well as we were heading home we ended up BEHIND the van. What was my plan? I had nothing... I even forgot my big huge gold bow I was going to wear since I'm his present. Naturally the fam had forgotten the salad so they went back for it. We pull up right next to the van. Nathan is in the seat right next to the window. I'm trying to hide while Art, Sue, and I try to figure out what the plan was. 
"Yes some random girl with your mom"-Art 
            My face was priceless with his comment to be honest. 
Art told me to just jump out. So I do and go over to the van door and just smile right at Nathan and say "Merry Christmas" 
What does he do..... Sits there in complete shock! Thanks babe. Then jumped out and hugs me. Comes to find out all my comments of trying to avoid talking about Christmas things were weird to Nathan but they finally made sense. I can't believe I pulled off the ultimate Christmas gift and Nathan had no idea. 
I hope that you got an amazing gift that you are just so thankful for. As for me... I'm enjoying the idea that there is no snow outside. Woot! Win for the Utah girl.
