Away From The Things Of Man: Big Steelers Win

Big Steelers Win

I don't have time for a long post tonight, but it sure was an exciting day! Between the Pittsburgh Steelers big win this evening over the Indianapolis Colts, 51-34 (WOW!), a game we really didn't expect them to win, and my brother's big 40th birthday and murder mystery party tonight, we've had an incredible weekend! I also heard a great message Saturday evening by Pastor Mitchel at my church, Grace Community, which I hope to comment on in a future post here. And I made a quick stop Saturday night at the impressive new Laurel Towne Centre (at the former site of the old Laurel Mall). Lots of cool new restaurants over there. Check it out!

I hope you all had a great weekend!
