Macaroni Grill & a Blizzard!

Friday night we met up with Loni's friend Aaron and his wife Val and their daughter Alexandria and went to dinner. We really wanted to go Macaroni Grill and the only place they have one (besides Northgate) is up in Lynnwood. Now from Renton to Lynnwood is a bit of a drive and so we expected it to take a while. What we weren't counting on was the HORRIBLE traffic on the way up there due to what you might ask? Well, let me tell you - it was SNOWING! And it wasn't just a little dusting of snow, it was borderline blizzard conditions. The flakes were HUGE and coming down so fast. All through dinner we were watching the flakes come down. How crazy is it that in the SPRINGTIME we are getting 1-6" of snow. We couldn't even get this during the winter months. Anyway - dinner was very nice and delicious! Not to mention very affordable. I am glad we were able to meet up with the Eastmans. Here are some pics:

Look at all the snow!
