We tried to get here sooner, but

Wyatt insisted on stopping at,

like, four different convenience

stores.

>> Quinn: [ Gasps ] Oh!

You didnt.

>> Wyatt: Yes, I did.

>> Quinn: [ Squealing ] You did!

Chocolate-covered cherries!

>> Wyatt: Just like the ones

that I used to --

>> Quinn: Leave for Santa Claus.

whole lot of baking in my house

when we were little, but Santa

apparently loved these.

does.

Thank you so much, my boy.

Oh, I love you.

>> Wyatt: Merry Christmas.

>> Quinn: Merry Christmas.

[ Giggles ]

>> Liam: Totally dug it.

>> Donna: Come on, Brooke.

I want to see this.

>> Brooke: What? No!

Bridget just got here.

>> Katie: Well, then she can

come, too.

You got to see this.

>> Eric: What? What? What?

>> Brooke: Pam doesnt think the

Logans can cook, so she always

gives us menial tasks.

>> Katie: Her latest plan of

action is that Charlie and her

just talk and talk and talk and

hope that we never touch a

spatula.

>> Bridget: Oh!

>> Donna: So I want to see how

long they can keep it up until

they finally cave.

>> Bridget: Oh, well, Im

totally in for this.

>> Eric: Okay, good, but before

you all disappear into Pams

culinary filibuster, I want to

say welcome.

Im glad youre all here.

Everyone!

And the blessings of the season

on all of us all year long.

[ Laughter ]

>> Donna: Now lets get into the

kitchen.

>> Liam: Merry Christmas.

>> Steffy: Merry Christmas!

[ Laughter ]

>> Pam: So, the key to my

mothers crown roast is that you

take the long spring of rosemary

and you braid it around the

twine so it makes the crush

incredible --

[ Timer beeps ]

Oh! Thats the first of the

three bastings!

>> Brooke: Oh! Basting!

I can baste!

Im really good at basting.

>> Pam: Oh, no, Charlie!

>> Charlie: What?

>> Pam: Charlie, the oven isnt

on!

>> Charlie: Oh, no! Oh, my God!

I reset the time.

I didnt set the temperature!

Oh, God, Im a nitwit!

>> Pam: What are we gonna do,

Charlie?

Oh, no!

The timing is off for

everything now!

Did you turn on the oven for the

turkey?

>> >> Charlie: Yeah!

>> Pam: Oh, Charlie, you know

what you have to do is

immediately turn off all the

burners --

>> Charlie: Burners!

>> Pam: Keep stirring the

gravy, though, so it doesnt --

>> Donna: All fixed!

>> Pam: What?

>> Donna: I put on the

convection setting.

It cooks about 30% faster, and

factoring in that this is only

one of three bastes, you

probably only lost, what, 10,

15 minutes, tops?

>> Pam: [ Gasps ]

>> Donna: What? I --

I dated a chef in Dallas,

amongst others.

>> Pam: Donna! You --

You just saved Christmas!

>> Donna: I saved Christmas?

>> Pam: You did! You did!

Thank you!

>> Katie: Shes the Christmas

miracle.

>> Pam: Whoo-hoo!

>> Donna: Whoo!

>> Katie: How did she know that?

>> Liam: What is that?

>> Wyatt: Its part of my newest

batch.

Its a bourbon stout.

>> Liam: Is this -- Can I?

>> Wyatt: It took eight weeks to

condition.

>> Sally: Youve been obsessed

with brewing.

>> Wyatt: Well, yeah, theres a

lot that goes into it --

>> Liam: Yeah.

>> Wyatt: The chemistry and --

and precision...

>> Liam: And patience!

>> Maya: Yeah, and the excuse to

drink.

>> Liam: Well, yeah.

>> Wyatt: I have a very critical

palate.

>> Liam: Bro!

>> Wyatt: Merry Christmas.

>> Liam: I love it.

>> Wyatt: You have to share.

>> Liam: Im not going to.

>> Eric: Ahh, to be young again.

>> Quinn: Oh!

>> Thorne: What are you talking

about?

I just saw the two of you

kissing under that a minute ago.

>> Quinn: Oh!

>> Vivienne: Ooh! [ Laughs ]

>> Julius: I remember those

days.

The magic of the season.

Anticipation.

Falling asleep to the glow of an

electric candle in the window.

[ Laughter ]

Hey! Did you ever get an orange

in your stocking?

>> Eric: Oh, yes, I did.

A prized gift

when my parents were children.

They kept that tradition alive

for us.

>> Quinn: Ahh.

>> Pam: I thought that was

amazing.

>> Quinn: Hows dinner coming?

>> Pam: Oh, easy peasy!

All set!

[ Laughter ]

>> Charlie: Crisis averted!

>> Katie: It was all you, Donna.

>> Brooke: Whoo!

>> Hope: Yeah?

>> Liam: Yeah. Yeah.

>> Hope: Okay, all right, Im

her.

Everyone!

Um, everyone! Shh!

Liam and I have an announcement

to make.

Weve finally come up with a

name for our little girl.

>> Brooke: Oh! Honey!

>> Liam: Youre gonna want to

hold those tears, trust me.

>> Hope: Um, we have decided to

name her after Grandma.

>> Oh! Aww!

>> Aww!

>> Aww!

>> Brooke: [ Gasps ]

>> Hope: Everyone, this is Beth.

>> Brooke: Oh, no!

Oh, you are so blessed.

>> Ridge: Well, were all

blessed, really, right?

I mean, look at us!

Were all sitting here together.

Were having Christmas as a

family.

That doesnt happen!

Hey, ladies!

Im making a speech!

[ Laughter ]

Stay with me!

I dont know, maybe its the

spirit of Christmas, or

something, but Im -- Im

feeling something.

How about this?

How about we all share what our

blessings are on this beautiful

evening?

>> Eric: I think thats a pretty

good idea, Ridge.

>> Ridge: Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Thorne, youre up.

>> Thorne: You should go first.

>> Ridge: Im only kidding.

[ Laughter ]

I do want to say something. I --

Im blessed to have these two

beautiful women in my life.

You teach me every day what

strength is, what compassion is,

and what it means to be loved

unconditionally.

Come here. I love you guys.

>> Aww!

>> Brooke: Thank you.

Thats very sweet.

[ Laughter ]

>> Eric: Everybody!

I think it is important, very

important, that we keep track of

all our blessings in this life,

and one of my biggest blessing

is to open this house to

everyone.

Thanks for being here.

>> Thorne: Cheers, Dad.

>> Cheers!

>> Quinn: To be surrounded by

family.

>> Wyatt: Come on. Seriously?

>> Quinn: Oh! Okay. I just --

>> Wyatt: Just -- Can you --

>> Quinn: Okay, all right. Okay.

that is.

[ Laughter ]

>> Charlie: Metaphorically

speaking, of course.

[ Laughter ]

You know, Im -- Im just

blessed to have my Pammy.

>> Aww!

>> Katie: Go, go, go, go.

Logan girls only.

>> Donna: You boys!

>> Bridget: Oh, this is gonna

look cute.

Ready? 1, 2...

[ Laughter ]

>> Donna: And I reunited with my

sisters.

>> Zoe: Its definitely a

blessing to have a second

chance.

>> Xander: And to have had

patience and understanding to

guide us there.

>> Katie: Hey, baby!

>> Thorne: You good?

>> Katie: Yeah, Im good.

He got you the whole set?

>> Will: Yeah!

>> Katie: Of course he did.

a beautiful, happy son.

[ Laughter ]

>> Oh, my God!

You were so young!

[ Laughter ]

>> Bridget: And for me, its

time.

Getting to see more of everyone

this year.

>> You look so different!

>> Julius: Well, I was blessed

with an eagle on the 15th last

week.

Ooh!

>> Vivienne: Julius!

>> Julius: Huh? Oh! [ Laughs ]

Uh, blessed because, as great as

that felt, it pales in

comparison to being here with

our daughter and our lovely

granddaughter at Christmas.

>> Maya: Aww!

>> Vivienne: That goes for both

of us, baby.

>> Maya: And I am so beyond

blessed to be back home with my

family.

>> Vivienne: Aww!

>> Maya: You, too, cousin! Mwah!

fortunate.

it wouldnt be possible without

your support.

Were stronger when were

I look around this room, and I

Kelly and I are so blessed.

God, and saying, "lory to God in

>> Eric: Thanks for

volunteering.

>> Xander: Of course. Thank you.

>> Eric: [ Chuckles ]

Its a tradition in this house

to read a passage from this book

every Christmas to remind us of

what Christmas is really about,

the birth of Jesus of Nazareth.

The holiday has come to mean

other things, too -- peace and

love, togetherness, qualities

that I think we should all carry

with us all year long and share

with other people.

I think the world would be a

better place.

>> Steffy: I absolutely agree.

I wish the holiday spirit would

last all year long.

People being kind to each other.

Full of gratitude and

appreciation.

Especially for family.

I dont want to get too

philosophical, especially after

Granddads egg nog...

[ Laughter ]

But we are just one big, happy

family.

>> Eric: I appreciate it, how

much youre trying to implement

that with, uh -- with Liam and

Hope and with Kelly and, soon,

with Beth, as well.

I like the idea of

inclusiveness.

I think the world would be a

better place.

The world could stand that,

treating everybody you see as a

brother or sister, help them,

and, when necessary, forgive

them.

Im so happy you were all here,

celebrating this and sharing

this time with us.

Im so happy to hear all of your

blessings that you feel you

have, and so Merry Christmas to

one and all!
