Let it snow and then lose power

SO it started snowing Friday night and it looked so great. Then Saturday morning at 10 am the power went out. It stayed out until 2:30 AM SUNDAY MORNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck we had the gas fireplace. Randy curled up on the couch under a few blankets to read a book. Nat sat by the fireplace in a blanket and a book. I got under blankets and grabbed a book. We spent the day reading. It makes you appreciate the gadgets we have as well as the difference a good book makes.

We had a dance to take pictures at Saturday night so Nat put curlers in her hair and sat by the fireplace to have it dry. She looked so cute sitting there reading her vampire love story with her hair up etc.
Good thing it came on or we might have had to miss church (not really)

So I got thinking about my next set of stories. I am so in love with the Robin Hood story. But I think it would be great to read it from others point of view. So I will post some of these ideas here.
I also have ideas on a twist of the Christmas story. That one has been bouncing around for 8 years now and really comes on strong this time of year. Basically called "The Inn Keepers Son". The Christmas story told from the eyes of 2 10 year old boys. One the son of the Inn Keeper with dreams of being a Roman soldier and one a Shepard boy with nothing to dream about. The story starts at the inn and follows them thru-out their lives to end at the cross where they meet one last time.

The problem of having lots of ideas is that unless you write them down you will lose them.
