Here are some of the Christmas festivities happening in and around Boston I attended. Boston is definitely a magical city when all the Christmas decor gets put up.
 |
| The State House's roof with gold leafing all lit up. |
 |
| Waiting the lighting of the Christmas Tree in Boston Commons. |
 |
| And here it is - the Boston Common's tree. This tree actually comes to Boston from the people of Nova Scotia as a gift in return for the troops Boston sent up to help fight one of their battles in the 1800's. |
 |
| The Messiah sing. First time I have ever been to one. And it was a good thing I was sitting next to a girl who knew all the notes for the alto section or else I would have been totally lost. |
 |
| Look at that temperature!! |
 |
| Bunker Hill Monument all lit up with a fresh coat of snow. |
 |
| Charlestown, MA. I loved seeing the real pine bows hanging from door frames and banisters. It looked so quaint. |
 |
| Charlestown, MA again. Isn't this place adorable! I love the street lamps with wreaths hanging from them. You can even see downtown Boston in the distance. I love this little town; maybe one day I will leave here. |
 |
| Those aren't Christmas lights. Traffic. |
 |
| I love giving gifts - Kemp and Joseph got tennis rackets and balls, Avy got a baby rocking chair, Tay and Ken got shirts and earrings, Mom got Anne of Green Gables with a trip itinerary for Prince Edwards Island, and Dad got a great little travel guide book of different trips in the New England area (I can say this now that Christmas is over and done with). |

| Cookie decorating for the holidays. |
