In the spirit of April Fools day, here’s your chance to try and figure out which of the items below are true and which are not.
- As if running a marathon wasn’t challenging enough. I, JR Andrews, hereby announce my intent to run the San Antonio Marathon on November 14, 2010 . . . barefoot.
- This year for Lent Jenny gave up Costco.
- After 2 months on the farm last fall, Livy’s Easter lamb coloring pictures now come complete with sheep manure.
- Speaking of #4, here he/she comes. As in child #4! Boy or girl we don’t know yet.
- Jenny completed the P90X workout. Yeah, the infomercial DVD thing that is 1.5 hour workouts 6 days a week for 90 days. Not only that but in the last year she went from a size 12 to a size 6. Oh, and she can kick JR’s butt on the AbRipperX workout.
- Molly has picked up some Spanish and some (more) attitude and now calls herself, “Quatro-Cinco”.
- Violet, 18 months old, is so advanced that the pediatrician has suggested that we start potty training her.
- After much debate, Jenny has finally said that JR can get a motorcycle. Livy’s only restriction is that it must be red.
- This is how JR really looks right now.
Leave a comment with your guesses as to which are real and which are fictional.
UPDATE: Jenny has reported an influx of phone calls wanting to know the answers. If you want to know the answers, leave a comment. We’re out of cell phone minutes anyway.

Uncle Dan wants to point out however that none of these are outside the realm of reason for someone with the last name of Andrews.

5. I’m sure the part about kicking JR’s butt is true, but I’m doubtful about the 90 day workout–when would she have time?
6. The attitude part is true, but not the name!
7. Definitely true–she has two “models” to show her what to do!

All those True answers make me wonder if #2 is really true or #1. But I don’t think you’re crazy enough to run a marathon barefoot with that haircut. Maybe you are. You always could mess with my head like no one else.
