Party-cus I’m One {Sacramento Area Children Photographer}

Posted in Childrens Portraits, My Family

Just a quick blog update, I wanted to share a few photographs from my Grandson Thomas’s birthday party. We had a quint little barbecue at one of my favorite parks {Ancil Hoffman}. I love that park, especially the trail that is about a three mile loop all the way around the park, I try to find the time to run the trail 3 or 4 times a week with our fat family lab {Maci}. Just a beautiful trail! Anyway, we had a lovely barbecue, grilling hot dogs and hamburgers and several delicious salads. For dessert Grandma Michael made our little cowboy the cutest little {boot} cake, I have to say, I was so impressed not only with the cake but that Thomas ate and ate and ate his cake with a fork. I could not get over how cute he was when he offered up his cake to everyone around him. Really, a one year old that eats his birthday cake with a fork? As far as dessert for the rest of the 60+ guests non other than Esther’s Cupcakes. We decided to make it easy and got chocolate and vanilla cupcakes from Esther’s. Everyone raved about the lovely day, weather was perfect, the lunch was delicious, the kids had lots of space to run and play and of course Esther’s Cupcakes were the bomb once again.

Party
