Mackensey has been making all sorts of delicious (fattening!) goodies such as trifle and magic cookie bar. Yum, yum. If we could sit around the house and eat all day, we might, but Jacque and Clyde (hereafter referred to as Nana and Grandad) had a couple pre-Christmas activities up their sleeves to make sure we weren't total couch potatoes.
Our second night in town we went "caroling on the common," a Shrewsbury event just outside the First Congregational Church in the downtown area. It was biting cold but the carolers were committed and there was plenty of hot chocolate to help take the edge off...

Following caroling, we did the next logical thing and stopped at Starbucks for additional hot beverages and conversation.

Our other major outing was to the Christmas Eve service at Chapel of the Cross, the church the Boston Carters attend. It was wonderful to be able to meet some of the people in their small group and just enjoy a beautiful candle-lit service.
I don't have pictures from the service, so pictures of our lovely doggies will have to suffice.
