A goodbye for now to one of America's finest...

So I've lived in San Diego for 3 years now and upon the advice of my Dad (and most other good men) I've pretty much avoided military men for the most part (excluding the odd few I meet here and there at church!) So... on the basis of a lie a few weeks back (see jumping out of planes) I ended up friends with a couple of men that have done nothing but distract me and my pals (Kylie and Cassi can vouch!) over the past six weeks! Don't worry Dad, Christian's been shipped off to Texas for at least 3 years, so you don't have to worry about me just yet, but I do know why you tell me to avoid them! 

Meet Christian Rondestvedt... it feels like I've known him for years!!! Kylie and I are fighting for his continual attention and love, and I've seriously considered asking his family to let me adopt them as my US version of my family! These people are GOOD people! 

We miss you already Christian! 


The boys, Andrew, James and Christian... down town San Diego 
Brothers (James and Christian) and mwa! 
For good measure, this is me with Christian's helmet, what self respecting Australian who meets her first American navy pilot doesn't beg for this picture! So she can send it immediatley via iphone to her friends (Cass & Kyles) to make them insanely jealous that she's at the family BBQ and they are NOT!

I have to say, I'm a little jealous as well. If he ever takes you to see his jet, make sure you take lots of pictures. Close ups of everything and ready to fly. I'd be happy if you were in the cockpit to, that way i can imagine myself as you :P
