Skydiving

Jonathan finally took the plunge yesterday.  It was a beautiful 80+ degree day with fluffy white clouds in the sky.  He went up with his friend Caleb and two professional skydivers, fell out of the plane with the owner of Central Maine Skydiving strapped to his back, buzzed through those fluffy white clouds and then peacefully floated back down to earth where we waited.  However, I don't think Jonathan ever really came back to earth as he is still dazedly high from his experience. :)


"SURREAL."


As soon as we began to approach him after his landing he yelled out, "IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE!"  He can't stop talking about it.  I'm pretty sure he's addicted now.

And what did the kids think of it?  Summer ran up to him and jumped into his arms asking, "When I'm bigger, like when I'm ten, can I do that?"  Dylan also wants to know when he can "jump out of an airport with you, Daddy?"  Saveia wants to do it as soon as she can too.  (Olivia and Owen were at the beach with our friends the Smith's and were unable to give their opinions.)  I'm thinking I just might do it too, some day.
