How to write a Christmas letter in 4 Easy Steps

The New Stepford teaches you the secrets on how to write the perfect Christmas letter. Think E-L-F. Efficient, Light, and Funny.

1. Bring us good cheer with stories about vacations, babies and marriages. Avoid 'downer' words like surgery, child support and anything to do with feet. These just make people uncomfortable.

2. Watch those apostrophes! Your Christmas cards should be sent with "With Love From The Ciceros" -- NOT "The Cicero's". Do an eggnog shot every time you get a return email address from "The Allen's"

3. It MUST fit on one sheet of paper. Anything over this and you need to start blogging or see a therapist. No one cares that much about you really.

4. Don't print it on red or blue paper. Christmas letters can be painful enough to read anyways don't add insult to injury.

That's it - E.L.F it up!

Good luck, Whitney
