<p>One easy way to do a holiday letter is to combine it with photos. I did this last year in a very low-tech way. I put about five photos on a plain sheet of paper and wrote little descriptions beside each one. Then I added some holiday gift tags to the layout and a cheery headline and greeting and color-copied the whole thing. It turned out really well and wasn’t hard. This can be a good option for some years, if you are in a hurry or if you don’t quite know what to say about certain things.</p>
