Family Letter Example
Cards / / July 04, 2021
Family letters, in addition to being addressed to the family, also include letters addressed to our friends and people with whom we maintain a very close relationship. The theme is very varied, from a simple greeting, telling a good news, asking for help, expressing our love, condolences, just to mention a few.
As we do face to face, in a family letter we put aside the formalities and deferences, although we will always try to write with clarity and good spelling.
There is no specific format, so we can give it our personal touch. A recommendation, whenever possible, is that we make our handwritten family letters, since they form an extension of our feelings, and therefore, of ourselves.
In any case, let us not forget to indicate who we are addressing, the date we do so and sign at the end of our letter.
Sample family letter:
Monterrey, NL. December 27, 2010
Anabelite:
I hope you had a great Christmas there in Canada.
Over here you already know: Mom prepared romeritos for Christmas and chicken au gratin. He also kept running around Pedrito and Juanita because, as always, they broke the tree balls.
At Christmas, my aunt Petra and my cousins came, and we had a good time, they brought some triques from the north, the kind with little lights that talk. Antonio also came, your ex from high school, he came with the Rosa, sometimes walk with her, Andrés brought them to him. Uncle Berto also came, he brought his girlfriend, the girl with whom I told you that she is praying. Besides, Mom, she kind of got mad, because when she saw that the girl was wearing one of those little skirts that don't cover nothing made the mouth of raisin, you know, the one that she puts when she scolds us, but then she held on and did not say nothing. We had dinner and were dancing until about three o'clock. At one o'clock your friends Leslie and Jasmín arrived, to see if she had come, they danced with Antonio and Andrés until about two thirty in the morning, and then Leslie's Brother passed by. Uncle Berto and Papá were toasting until about 5 in the morning, we were all already asleep. Daddy got the spoonfuls and he was in bed on the 25th. She anyway she said that nobody takes it off the dance.
I hope you have not been bored, we all hope to see you here for New Years, or you lose for kings, and by the way you tell us how you spent there.
They all send you a hug.
Toña
