What is the difference between these pages and the actual Christmas Letter?   These pages show only the photos from the Christmas Letter and VERY brief photo descriptions.   The Christmas Letter tells the actual stories behind the photos and more details about the where and why. The primary reason for these pages is to allow people to see larger versions of the Christmas Letter photos. The Christmas Letter is 18 pages in length this year.
