It was fun. Eve loves apples and<br \/>\n    Lex loves anything he can pick off the trees himself. They both<br \/>\n    ate a lot! I&#8217;m not sure they actually finished any apples<br \/>\n    though, they seemed to prefer a few bites then on to a new<br \/>\n    apple. Julie found a woolly bear that was captivating for the<br \/>\n    kids. Eve kept saying &#8220;bear!&#8221; and making the bear baby sign.<br \/>\n    When Julie put it down by a tree Eve trotted right over and<br \/>\n    started saying, loudly, &#8220;bear! bear!&#8221; and pointing at it :) I<br \/>\n    think she liked it. We also saw Steven Tyler. Alan did really,<br \/>\n    Julie and I saw him from the back and heard him talking. Alan<br \/>\n    wouldn&#8217;t let us go ogle and take pictures. Something about<br \/>\n    respecting his privacy and all :) We came home and made two<br \/>\n    Dutch apple pies. They took awhile to cook, but were soooo<br \/>\n    tasty! One is in the freezer. It&#8217;s safer for all of us that<br \/>\n    way. I&#8217;ve since made two batches of applesauce with the kids.<br \/>\n    It&#8217;s surprisingly easy to make and the kids love it!<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e)\n    {}\" href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SNMDi_CkZ7I\/AAAAAAAAD9c\/lhq7uBX7OE4\/s1600-h\/IMG_3009.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align:\n    center; cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SNMDi_CkZ7I\/AAAAAAAAD9c\/lhq7uBX7OE4\/s320\/IMG_3009.JPG\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247541890389403570\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Checking<br \/>\n    out the woolly bear caterpillar with Julie.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:\n    center;\"><a onblur=\"try\n    {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SNMDjXMfreI\/AAAAAAAAD9k\/focE_2Ha1BE\/s1600-h\/IMG_3012.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align:\n    center; cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SNMDjXMfreI\/AAAAAAAAD9k\/focE_2Ha1BE\/s320\/IMG_3012.JPG\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247541896873487842\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Eating<br \/>\n    apples.
