The cicada nymph will go through one more molt shedding its skin into adulthood.

Yep, that's a Cicada nymph getting ready to emerge into adulthood. here's a shot I took of a 17-year Periodic Cicada in 2007 when they emerged here. You can see the shell that it's crawling out of that looks very similar to other Cicada species.

The spider appears to be Misumena vatia, a species commonly known as the goldenrod crab spider - see Misumena vatia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. It has a very wide distribution, and the females can change their color to some degree, depending in what color flower(s) they are on. Also, their venom must be very fast-acting, as they easily can overcome prey larger than themselves.
