While our hubbies were busy doing nerdy things today, Barb and I joined Dad and the kids for a stroll around Mundaring Weir. The Weir is about 15ish kms from me and is a favourite picnic spot near Mundaring. I took some pics while I was there, and Boo will be delighted to see that not all the kangaroos around here are dead on the side of the road.

Darcie, ever the poser!
You can't really tell here, but this mummy roo has a joey in her pouch
Three of the ten or so roos that were in the area grazing
Also, I went to a shop called Red Stripe Clothing today in Northbridge which is Perth's own Goth shop, a little like Electric Cabaret, minus the pirates. I went in search of boots and I've ordered some in, so it will be a couple of weeks before I can get you all photo's. However, a heads up to Boo and Mouse. When you come to visit me, bring lots of money! The shoes there are so cheap! They don't have New Rocks, but a very similar brand from the US, my boots only cost $190 AUD. And Boo, you know the shoes you love with the star through the sole? They have about ten different types of them there and they're only $80 AUD. It's just a wonderful shop! redstripclothing.com is the url if you want to have a looksie.
Oh, and finally, because I finally got a photo, here's Barb with her shaved head. It's grown back a lot in the four weeks since she shaved it for Shave For a Cure, but you'll get the drift.

Yay for undead 'roos, YAY for boots, and awwww, Barb looks so cute (as do the kids)!
Huzzah! I'll have to see if I can check out Red Stripe on a lunchbreak...
Woohoo for kangaroos and cheap boots! Can we go for a picnic there when we finally come to visit?
Mouse, I intned on taking you guys on so many picnics you'll be sick of them! There are just so many beautiful places around here, and I want to show them all to you!
One of these days I'll get to see kangaroos roaming around in the wilderness. One of these days.
