Caitlin wanted a "Duncan" cake...I guess he really made an impression on her. This was my version, from a book of children's cakes. 
Kate, Caitlin really liked her fan, and Em, she was SO thrilled at getting 5 pieces of gum. And Mom, she's really excited to bust out that pavement paint tomorrow after school!
I tried explaining that this wasn't a "big" party- because we had a big one last year and, although we celebrate every year, the full-blown parties, complete with invitations and favor bags, are only every other year. Apparently that wasn't good enough, because Caitlin made her own favor bags. Yup, complete with rocks, leaves, pictures cut from magazines, and one piece of candy each. And she gave them to them, and her friends thought they were great!
For her party they made bracelets, had a picnic in our backyard, then I took them all out for ice cream.

I'm impressed you took them all out! Looks like she had fun. We sent her a little card a couple days ago, sorry if it's late!
I'm sure her birthday met all her expectations! The cake is darling.
Those gift bags are the cutest!!
She does have her mom's creative flair. Mom
