After 6 long months apart, Brandon Moreno surprises his family in Miami, Florida with this incredible moment, captured on video, that he sweetly but deviously planned to fool first his friends then his mother.

"For my friends, I actually got invited to their Christmas party they were hosting but I told them I couldn’t make it because flights were really expensive. They got really upset with me and said that they really miss me," Moreno told Newsflare before the video shows him bursting through the door to a profanity-laced joyous reaction.

"I kept it a surprise by booking a last-minute flight and telling my mom that I sent her a Christmas gift in the mail! And she had to sign for it. So I told her she needs to be home on Thursday (December 23) around the time I landed," the sentimental yet surreptitious Moreno said before the second half of the video shows him greeting his mother at home.

It’s been about 6 months since I’ve seen them, I kept it a surprise by booking a last minute flight and telling my mom that I sent her a Christmas gift in the mail and she had to sign for it. So I told her she needs to be home on the 23rd from 3 - 5 pm (which is around the time my flight landed). And for my friends, I actually got invited to their Christmas party they were hosting but I told them I couldn’t make it because flights were really expensive. They got really upset with me and said that they really miss me.
