Writing a Christmas letter has been a cherished family tradition for many years. I use these letters to share our experiences, accomplishments, and highlights of the year. Christmas letters have become our way of staying connected with family and friends, offering a more personal touch than a standard holiday card to share our life story.
Each of these letters brings back many fond memories and has become a treasured part of our family’s history.
