Great Food, Nice Staff, and They Have a Tree in the Building!! {Fresno, CA. Child Birthday Party and Portraits}

The month of June brings the beginning of summer and summers in this area are usually unforgiving when it comes to the heat. June is also the birth month of my oldest child. The first three birthday parties we had for him, the temps were well over 100 degrees which was not very easy on his guests. As he got older, we (mom and dad) got wiser and chose to have indoor parties for him. This last year he had his birthday party at his favorite restaurant, Huckleberry's. He loves the food there, the staff is always friendly with us, and most importantly (in my son's opinion) there is a tree in the building. Now to a 6 year old that is pretty cool! Here are some shots from his birthday festivities~

This is his 6 year old portrait session we shot up and around our local river.



I had the hardest time finding some party ideas for this theme. So for party favors we purchased the small canning jars and stuffed them with chocolate cake crumbs and gummy worms to give it a look of a jar of worms for fishing bait. The invites I saw on the Oh So Beautiful Paper website and went with something similar.

Because his actual birthday fell mid-week we had his party with a few friends on the weekend and we took him for pizza and had a cake at home on his actual birthday.
