The Popes: 2010

Fearless my boy! That was a tarantula that Jason caught and the boys kept as a pet for a few days. here we are about to let it go. Do you see the difference in Jakes reaction and Jonas'. Haha

Yep those are two live toads Jonas is holding! The grosser and slimier the better in his mind!

Jake broke his first board in Martial Arts! Way to go bud!

hmmmm which toy should I play with now?

Jeremiah 6 months old

Happy 4th of July

Jeremiah playing with the He-Man toys! Making his daddy proud

Summer time treats!

First solids for the little man! Yummy carrots

Summer Vacation in Vrginia Beach! We had a great time staying at a beach house. We went to Busch Gardens, an Aqaurium, spent days just hanging out on the beach and explored the wonderful area of Sandbridge and Virginia Beach! Would highly recommend this vacation spot!

pooped out after a hard day playing at busch gardens

jason was born in the wrong era and wrongpart of the world

this was the most pathetic swing ride...but the kids just loved it for some reason!

Jason, Dad and Jessica went on this coaster. At this part it drops you at a 90 degree angle, after holding you there for a few seconds! WHOA

One of the 4 fish the guys caught deep sea fishing, kinda a bummer of a trip!

Happy Jeremiah

2 crazy boys!

Jonas getting warm on the sand. It was so hot that I had to run and it was still burning my feet. He was just sitting there like it was nothing! Skin of leather i guess

Notice the boys crying their little eyes out! Now this is a family vacation! haha

This fish looks like it has human teeth!

Our humble Virginia aboad

jason and jared went crab catching one night. they were running all over the sand(both crabs and the guys, aha), so they felt it necessary to bring some up to show us!
