Sibling Seattle Day

Three of my brothers came in to town all for different reasons so I drove to my mom's house to spend some time with them and my local sister. 

Talitha and I went to visit Frankie Feetsplinters.  Two trolls down, a few more to go.

We then walked to the Ballard locks.  I've never seen them before and it was cool to see the salmon ladder.  For those who don't know:

 

"The Ballard Locks is a waterway system that connects the saltwater of the Puget Sound to the fresh water of the Ship Canal, which sits about 20 feet above sea level. Boats enter the locks, the gates close and the water rises or falls to the level of the destination waterway."

The surrounding gardens are pretty as well.

I didn't realize until later that Talitha took a picture of me taking a picture.

We had some extra time so we headed over to Pikes Place market.

And over to the Mariner's game, where we met two of my brothers.

It had a very exciting game winning home run ending.

We also spent time hanging out and playing games at my parents house with more family.
