I have no problem with that... well apart from the story of shepherds being out and about at night in the middle of winter.Ignoring the already mentioned fact that Jesus was probably not born on December 25th, even if he were, it all went down in the Middle East, a place not really known for it's harsh winter nights...
In other words, the fact that shepherds were out at night in winter isn't really a problem with the story that you should be focusing on...
