Flea Bombing and "Boom Booms"

Yesterday we had Terminix come to the house and spray for fleas. We are really hoping this kills them all because it was a lot of work to prepare the house and clean-up afterwards...

We left the pets on the porch for ~5 hours while we went to Lodi Outlets to shop. We borrowed my parents' cage for the cats. It worked out well. But the cats were really freaked out!

When we got home, we had to give the pets flea baths. We haven't given the cats baths since they were kittens. Slater did well, but Peeve was mad. He tried to claw and bite his way free! The shampoo worked well. We saw a lot of dead fleas. Not a good day for the cats at the Cross household!

Isn't this photo hilarious?

"Boom Booms" is what Lily calls fireworks. We went down to Belden last night to see the Hall of Fame fireworks. We started to walk up to Kent Stark where all the food and festival stuff is, but we turned around and found a grassy spot by Chick Fil A. It looked like it might rain and we didn't want to be stuck in too much traffic once they were over. It worked out well because we got some ice cream, Lily got a balloon and she had a lot of room to run around. The fireworks didn't start until 10 so we had almost 2 hours to keep her busy. Luckily we had really nice people all around us who talked to her and helped keep her busy.

Dillon loves being on his tummy

As many of you know, Lily loves balloons. Or "A boons" as she calls them!

These last few pictures were taken by Lily. We gave her the camera and let her take about 15 photos. She's a great photographer, wouldn't you agree?
