Your ID skills are 'spot on', Nancy. Canada Holly is the first shrub.
The other is /huckleberry Gaylussacia/baccata. Tasty, but seedy. I
checked right away, fearing that you may have found Glossy Buckthorn,
which is bound to be headed that way soon in the intestine of a bird.
This plant also bears fruit... a lot of fruit!

The berries were very large for such a small bush (about the same size as the highbush blueberries sold in grocery stores).
The second looks to be in the blueberry/huckleberry family Ericaceae:
