Dear Sky Dive Sebastian,
You were amazing. I don't even really know how to describe you as an experience in words beyond that. And you're so exciting, that even my dad took the plunge out of the plane with us, despite the fact that it could have made the "watch my neck" line way more legendary (and actually now that I think of it, maybe it did). He's a true adventurer - like father, like daughter and son.
Also - Michael would like to thank you for the sweet landing.
Why didn't anyone warn me not to wear a v-neck shirt while skydiving with a harness as a push-up device?

*bear with the number of photos, want to convey this experience in all its glory
**am trying to figure out how to convert the video to a file that I can put up here
***yes, my instructor was the best looking, and it wasn't even on purpose (better than our surfing lesson, huh, cass?)
3 amigos in front of skydive sebastian upon arrival (this is before we know pops is going)
Michael and I filling out our forms reminding each other we could die, then dad busts in and announces that he's going fused neck and all
the man, the myth, the legend
all harnessed up - fly or die time
the view from above
i've been ready for this my whole life
free-fallin'
leaving the plane behind
"THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!
above the clouds
just want to point out how happy uwe (instructor) is in every picture - what if you were that happy every day at your job? the world would be a different place!
you can be my wingman any time
michael at 13,500 feet
thumbs!! (his instructor looks like superman with his arms out straight)
you'll see he gets his facial expressions from his father
BOOM! shoot goes out, silence!
pops all psyched up, and growing increasingly more nervous with every inch we climb
i'm on the top of the world lookin' down at creation...
as dad would say, "kicking ass and taking names"
between dad's face and the instructor's hair, these are perfect caricatures that only get funnier
i imagine he's saying here "woooooooooooooooo" as only he can
this pic almost looks fake, like he's in a photo shoot, and someone said, "do your best tiger lurching"
the face again
it. makes. me. laugh. this. hard. every. time.
the hits just keep coming
as those of you who know him could imagine, his first response to the camera when they asked him how he felt while he was sitting on the ground like this was to throw his fists into the air and yell, "woooooooooooooooooo" in his signature woo voice
after - a little windblown, a lot more awesome
we thought we would have so much energy, but we were drained after
This is freaking hilarious... I cannot stop laughing at the pics of your dad and the instructor. Seriously that's the funniest shit ever. I'm so proud of you guys!!!

I'm just glad you didn't leave out the shot of my gut hanging out... No photo shoot would be complete with out it... And thank you on a serious note for not including a picture of my landing...
