I was tagged to blog about 6 quirky things I do...hmm...let me think. I should have Robert blog about my quirks. Usually what I feel like is normal and acceptable behavior, he feels like is "eye-rolling" worthy. (You know what I mean!)
1) When I sit down on a chair I can never keep both feet on the floor. Unless I'm at church, in a dress, you will usually find me sitting cross-legged, or Indian style as I grew up calling it, (even at the dinner table) or with my feet up on a chair, the dashboard, or my hubby's lap! For those of you wondering, I am currently cross-legged sitting on the chair at the computer desk!
2) This next one comes from watching my dad...I will pull a clean cup out of the cupboard and smell the inside of it and then rinse it out. I really don't know why I picked that up. My dad always did it. I guess I was curious to what he was smelling or something. The cups were always clean. Robert still teases me about that one. The funny thing is, I'm not the only kid who picked up on it. I saw my 19 yr old sister do it the other day at my parent's house. LOL!
3) I don't know if this counts as quirky or not, but it is unusual. When I was pregnant with Jack I developed a weird hive condition. Now whenever I get cold I break out in hives all over. The most embarrassing time was when I went to the zoo with my family and I broke out all over my face. It looked like I was having an allergic reaction to something. The worst time was when Robert surprised me with a cabin get-a-way and 4-wheeling (in a snow covered Wyoming Forest) for our anniversary last year. It was way fun, but after driving around for hours my legs were so swollen and I scratched them so hard I made them bleed. Ouch!
4) I like to dress up my family in themed costumes for Halloween! The Halloween just before Robert and I were married I was Miss. America and he was Mr. USA! Last year we were pirates from The Pirates of the Caribbean. Jackson was Capt. Jack and Austin was Jack-the monkey pirate! (I have pictures of us in one of my first blog posts).
This year we are characters from Peter Pan. This was Austin's idea and he delegated the costumes. He is Peter Pan. Jack is a lost boy (dressed as an animal). Robert is Capt Hook and I am tinker bell...yeah...that should work out nice :oP
5) I love frogs! I don't have a live one...I just like them as toys and stuffed animals and carvings and fountains and jewelry and patterns and key chains and picture frames and story books, etc. I have a bunch from all over! Thanks to my way awesome friends and family who think of me when they see a frog item in a far off and/or fun place! :o)
6) If someone says a line, quote, phrase, or a catchy word that is part of a song, I will indeed sing it out loud to them. One of my all time favorite childhood games was to think of a word, any word, then have a race to think of a song with that word in it. Wanna play?! Ready.... "RING" (it's in the song I'm listening to now! Reply and tell me a song with "ring" in it!)
Alrighty then. Is that it? I'm sure those are not the best/most annoying quirks I have, but that's what I could think of now with my brain slowly going into shutdown mode at 2:00 in the morning! :o) Maybe that's another quirk. That I live in the early AM.
So now I tag 5 people. I tag Marie, Triston, Kenna, Jen and Erica. Have fun blogging! :o)
Ok...I tag EVERYONE who wants to be tagged. My 5 original tags have yet to post! :o)

That made me really miss you for some reason. That was pretty good to be able to think so well that early in the morning. Hey, we may be coming for the homecoming/farewell. YaY!
I was reading and I was like oh don't tag me.. then you didn't... :-(
But I so do #2 all the time, I didn't think it was weird til I did it at work. Yea, I was embarrassed as I looked at my coworker staring at me.
