Easter week with the Nelsons

Chris's cousin, Bill, came out to visit from Minnesota (or Minne-so-cold as the Malmes call it) the week before Easter. (I know I'm behind on posting.) He brought his lovely wife, Barb, and two adorable kids, Elise (5-1/2) and Cyrus (4). Elise was the flower girl in our wedding...she had just turned 3 years old...time sure does fly!

Chris and I went on a double date while Great Aunt Jan and Great Uncle David watched the kiddos. We took them to the Fish Market downtown.

The Nelsons left to go back home on Easter Sunday, so we celebrated Easter with them on Saturday. We walked with Oslo and Cassie over to the park near the Malmes' house and took some pictures of the kids (little and big).

Cyrus is concentrating on climbing that chain ladder...

Holly and the Box

I just love my little Holly baby. She loves crawling into boxes, and she especially loves that this box has paper packaging inside. Isn't she a cutie?!

Watch out for these over-the-counter flea products

Watch this video and watch out for over-the-counter flea products!

My cat was sick last year and I couldn't figure out why he was throwing up every week or two, losing a lot of fur, and getting really skinny. I thought it was an allergic reaction to his food. When I switched his food he slowly got better. But that also coincided w/ the flea season being over and I stopped giving him flea baths. This video shows a shampoo I used on him last year (Biospot) when he had fleas...now I'm convinced it was this flea shampoo that made him sick.
