**A Christmas Exploration through Time and Space**

As I sat down to write about this Christmas celebration, I couldn't help but feel a sense of creativity running through my veins. Inspiration struck as I thought about the baby Jesus in the manger, and how it's easy to get caught up in the idea that only special or worthy individuals are chosen by God. But what if we told ourselves otherwise? What if every person has a purpose, regardless of their circumstances?

I recalled reading "The Crippled Lamb" by Max Lucado about a little lamb that couldn't go out at night to help with the shepherd's flock. As I thought about this story, I realized how it relates to the baby Jesus' birth in the manger. The little crippled lamb was the one who kept the baby Jesus warm and safe. This made me think about how God has a purpose for each and every person, even those who may seem like they're not able to contribute or participate fully.

As I looked around at our little group of friends gathered together on this Christmas evening, I felt my eyes well up with tears. Maggie, one of Leanne's children, is very sensitive and easily upset by strong emotions. But when I read "The Crippled Lamb" to her, she was so moved that she began to cry. It was a powerful reminder for me about the impact we can have on others simply by being present with them.

**A Cookie Challenge**

After our emotional moment, we transitioned into a more lighthearted tone as we prepared for our cookie challenge. Charlie, our resident chef, had been cooking up a storm in the kitchen, and his creations were starting to emerge. He presented us with three unique cookies, each one representing a different aspect of Christmas: a cactus from the Southwest, a poinsettia, and an Aspen forest with falling snowflakes.

I was impressed by Charlie's creativity and skill in the kitchen. His cookies were not only delicious but also told a story. The first cookie, shaped like a cactus, represented the rugged beauty of the Southwest. The second cookie, adorned with red berries, symbolized the poinsettia plant that brings joy and festive spirit to our holiday season. And finally, the third cookie, with its intricate snowflake design, represented the peacefulness and serenity of an Aspen forest on a snowy day.

As we took turns tasting each cookie, I was struck by the complexity of flavors and textures. Charlie's cookies were not only delicious but also told a story about the different regions and landscapes that make up our country. It was a fun and creative way to celebrate Christmas and explore our country's diverse cultural heritage.

**The Winner of the Cowboy Cookie Challenge**

After much deliberation, we finally decided on a winner for our cookie challenge. And it was none other than Charlie, our resident chef! His cookies were not only delicious but also told a powerful story about the beauty and diversity of our country. We celebrated with a big hug and congratulations, knowing that we had been blessed to share this experience together.

**A Message from the Heart**

As we came to the end of our celebration, I took a moment to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas. It's not just about presents or cookies (although those are certainly important too!). At its heart, Christmas is about love, kindness, and compassion for one another. As we celebrated with each other, I was reminded of the importance of reaching out to others, especially those who may be struggling or feeling left behind.

I thought back to my own struggles as a parent, when my little Maggie would get overwhelmed by strong emotions. It's moments like those that remind me of the power of empathy and understanding. And as I looked around at our group of friends, I knew that we had been given a precious gift – the gift of each other's company, and the opportunity to make a difference in one another's lives.

**A Special Prayer for Our Troops**

As we came to the end of our celebration, I took a moment to reflect on those who may not be present with us tonight. Our troops, serving far from home, often go without the comforts and joys that we take for granted. It was a somber reminder of the sacrifices they make every day, and I felt compelled to offer a special prayer for them.

I invited our group to join me in a moment of silence, as we prayed for those who serve our country. May God bless them, keep them safe, and bring them comfort during these difficult times. And may we, too, be reminded of the importance of showing love and kindness to one another, especially during the holiday season.

**A Tour of Christmas**

As I looked around at our little group of friends, I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder and awe. We had started in South Texas, made a pit stop in North Texas for a boot with a spur, and ended up in an Aspen forest with falling snowflakes. It was a magical journey through time and space, one that reminded me of the beauty and diversity of our country.

As we celebrated Christmas together, I felt grateful for this experience, and for the friends who made it so special. May our celebration be filled with joy, laughter, and love, and may we always remember to show kindness and compassion to one another.

next the next phase are you calling it uh yeah I'm feeling pretty good well I went with this I'm not saying all of them are going to be good that's why I put more in mine than Mom but I think I'm hitting 60% and a good cookie I'm looking for even bake maybe a crisp around the edge a little Chew in the middle and then the decorating portion I'm looking for creativity clean lines a well thought out idea this girl's good you better just use her and not me oh no it's not stuck it's not everybody don't worry look it's a whole cookie you know in school when we were supposed to be doing a craft I was talking I think I'm going to do like a snowscape and I'm going to pretend that we have a home in Aspen oh no you know every challenge cooking I ever had they would always come in right when you thought you was about through and had it made but I think it'd be so much better did we wear these to decorate them cookies in and U I'm glad I Ed my time differently than M here I've got an idea on something creativity is just running through my veins right now inspiration this is the baby Jesus in the manger because you think about it when the baby Jesus when you think about I'm gonna bow my eyes out I cannot they test what do I need to tell it no let me just real quick if y'all ever read the crippled Lamb by Max loo about the little lamb that couldn't go out at night to help with the shepherd and so when the baby Jesus was born and the manger the little crippled lamb was the one that kept the baby Jesus warm warm and and that means that God has a purpose for everybody so if and I would read that to my little children we lived in San Anton and Maggie the middle one who's very sensitive would I would ball my eyes out and she would say please stop reading that Mommy you're upsetting me so Jesus is green Jesus is green because that's all I've got Ms up it's time to quit okay all right everybody feel good I feel good okay I'm feeling good the challenge is over Charlie
