Tip for all: read the comments while letting the ads play out 🤓
No need, I have ad block.
Letting the ads run helps generate some income for the content creator 💡😊
That's what I do or I open another window and do other things while I hear the ads then flick back over, problem solved. They get revenue and I get peace of mind.
Yes I do that! Also with Stephanie's channel so it could generate some income for the projects💖
Thats what i do read other peoples comments while adds are on .and i am enjoying reading other peoples comments such lovely people watching its so lovely that we are all falling in love with this lovely hard working family its just great xxxx
Just so impressed with your love for each other and the children. I want the Good Lord to bless and benefit you with all that you need for your life. Your commitment to each other and your family and home is truly wonderful to behold.
Thank you what a lovely thing to say x
I can't even imagine being like "so we have to take the old burner out, extend this with concrete, so we'll have to cut the floor, and then tile." and THEN IT BEING DONE RIGHT THEN AND THERE. Good lord. It's amazing. It takes minimum 2 weeks to just THINK about anything being done in our house.
😄 I like to get on ,especially if we have bought things I like to see a return straight away
@@escapetoruralfrance I'm with you on that! Just wish my hubby was of the same mind.
Two weeks? That quick!🤗
@@christinesmith7391 two weeks just to think about it. Give it another 2 before anything is gotten from the store, or any other decisions are made!
Well done on getting things done with two little ‘helpers’. Not easy.
Annalise, you are amazing and doing amazing job bringing up your boys and making a home for your family.
Thank you 😘
@@escapetoruralfrance exactly, I built a new house with hubby & grandparents when I was 21 with my first little one on the way & I cant imagine any scenario where I would have let my 2+ yr old to use a working drill even with the bit out. And the way you guys use rhetorical questions with them and deflect to new activities avoids any sense of disapproval in your directions to them. Now a grandma I am in awe esp. since the kids get through this much with without crying and other behaviors, they are so even tempered. Wonderful!
So sad a year later they are no longer a couple. Friends, but separated.
Hint hint: if you take the ceiling out you’ll have room for a fantastic chandelier! Wow, what a fantastic view!
I think your comment came true lol
WoW, I liked the tiles Annalise liked @ 20:41. It looks so good. I just decided to go back in time; have another look. Yeah, beauty!
Your home is going to be so charming. Your patience with your "little helpers" is endearing.
I've been waiting all week for another episode.
So glad you enjoy them 😊
Greg Bowman Yes me too!!
Me 3
Me 4
Me 5
So happy to see over 10 k subscribers. Congratulations
It's honestly amazing!!
It's now 11k 💖 'bless you Dan and family
Brilliant to open the ceiling. It will just make the place seem so much bigger and look stunning. As for heat up there, just install a lovely hanging fan. Very designer.
Yes, one of the kind that has multiple speeds and reverses with a touch button; had one in my loft with 6 metre ceilings, and it kept the warm air down in winter really nicely
Opening it up to let the light from the dormer is fantastic. I already saw the time lapse of the renovation of the kitchen, and it is truly amazing to see it in “slow motion,” I.e. normal speed. Fantastic.
Dan and his family are such sweethearts. It makes one want to be there helping them.
Such a beautiful family! ❤️
Thanks for sharing your wonderful journey 🏚🏠
💖👑👑💖xx I love all the family involved .this family gives me back faith in mankind. Thay deserve all the success in the world .watching them and reading everyones comment is my happy place☺xxxxx
Good work, Dan! Honestly, looking around the place it really hits you how much work needs to be done. Dan needs to start feeding his little helpers Miracle Grow because that is a lot of work for one guy and his lady. Hang in there, it is going to be beautiful when you are finished!
The tilecombination looks so good!!
My God what a great family you are. I love you more every week. New winter memories with the new pellet. Keep going and hope more people will come and join you to this channel!!!!Please watch all vlogs 2 times to help this incredible family.
Elsa03 - 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇦🇺🐨
So happy the burner arrived in time to be installed before cold temps arrive!
It's so nice to see how you involve the children and treat them as the people they already are!♡
Dan you never slow down. Holy cow you do a lot of stuff. My head feels like it’s going explode for you, even thinking about how many jobs, and different types of jobs you do. Sending hugs to you and Annalise from upstate NY
“kids in bed, then game on!” With HOME RENOVATION! Hahahahaha ❤️Annalise!!!
It's such fun to watch you take big bites out of your project list. I know it's hard with toddlers afoot but they're so adorable and I love their little sounds and how much they obviously want to follow in Daddy's footsteps.
Oh it would look so pretty with the celling all open
I agree. Seeing the whole fireplace n having the higher ceiling will be better than having that little space up top
wow those tiles are a great choice anna and the boys are so helpful with dad s work
What lovely tiles/pattern you chose ! Looks so nice. And a husband of all trades wow.
Isn't it funny how jobs always grow into yet more jobs!! The new tile surround to the pellet burner is going to look great though.
Really enjoying the vlogs and the fact they are not polished like some make them even better in my opinion.
Keep up the good work both of you.
Lovely ride to the mill!! I love the idea of having the exposed beams with open ceiling!!!!! The chickens are a hoot!! Congrats on the new heating stove. The tiles look lovely. Love from Vermont
You are an amazing father, not may fathers would let their sons "help'. greetings from amsterdam.
My dad would have been saying, go away, don't touch anything!
I remember we struggled when we put our log burner in, they are SOooooooooo heavy! I love the tile choice, things are coming along nicely! I also like how you are sharing your good fortune by passing your log burner onto help your friends xx
Yes definitely it's important for us to help people too 😊
My God Annalise you are awesome, truly. Always encouraging Dan and the boys! Take time for yourself, please.
I agree with Dan, open up the ceiling. It will be an amazing feature and make the room feel huge. 😀
After seeing the kitchen finished it’s been such a delight to come back to the beginning and see the whole story. Loving this channel so much,and the lovely community/comments! 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼💕
You two are so impressive. You're not afraid of tackling anything. More power to you.
Yes. Expose the roof rafters. Can you imagine it with vintage baskets and bunches of dried herbs hanging. You could light the ceiling to really highlight it.
Absolutely lovely family and treasured moments
Those tiles look amazing! Great mix of them! Love those little boys mimicking their dad! They love being involved too!
These boys seem to have inherited their father’s hands-on approach paired with their mother’s sunny disposition. It is as much fun looking at them interact with their parents as it is watching Dan come up with clever solutions to the numerous “very old house” problems that regularly pop up. Lovely family!
You two work so hard - can't wait to see the finished results.
Loved the new tiles for the hearth - you're so patient with the boys they will learn so much from you looking forward to the next reveal.:)
It looks SO MUCH BETTER OPEN UP THERE!! Wooooowwwww
I love your channel because you are just normal people renovating a normal (not a manor or chateau) house.
Have a Toasty winter guys. So happy for you!
The New Pellet Stove is Epic
Ar first I didnt like the choice of tiles, but after seeing floor down started liking it more. Well done,Dan.
I think you should get a really nice frame for the sac to hang in the new kitchen. That way it would be protected and you can display it nice.
There is a channel called Curiosity Incorporated in Canada that used a bunch of sacks like that to put up on their ceiling in part of their antique store.
LOL "don't hang a leg off!" Just like my mum telling my dad not to see-saw balance the scaffold board out of the bathroom window so he could reach the top of the side-door porch for re-pointing by using me & my 12 yr old sister as a counter weight. In a few years you could have fantastic assistant counter-weights too!! (p.s. we never stopped stopped leaning in freshly laid concrete or wet paint/varnish or running muddy boots across new concrete/brand-new carpets etc...but me and my sisters all know how to paint & wallpaper, dry-wall, mix concrete and lay loft insulation if we ever need to, so.... debt paid i guess ;D)
No wonder you are Isabelle's favorite...he is giving us the content that we all need!😊
looks good well done
You all just make it look soooo easy and effortless!
That's a job very well done. I love watching your progress. Thank you for taking us on your journey.
Definitely expose all the beams to the ceiling - it will be spectacular!
The sacks stuffed mske great floor/lawn pillows
Don't forget to rest! Its looking great. x
You guys are doing an amazing job and I love seeing your two little men helping dad! You have such a lovely patient way with your boys - good on you both!
Good job...well done. Looking forward to seeing the "beast" sitting in his place. I really enjoy watching Dan do all that work. Reminds me of the days when we had a pole shed and built the inside, walls wood burning fire place and all. Chickens and cows, rabbits and ducks, big garden. It was a good life, enjoy every moment!!!!
Kudos to you both in your big renovation. What a wonderful life you are making for your boys! God bless you and your family!💕🍁🍂
Amazing work you two!! 💞
(Moira Ashton) Wow! Those pellet burners are great, three of my friends have them here in Spain! It's getting exciting now, seeing things take shape, and the boys are both helping now 😅😅😅, Held my breath while Dan was up that ladder 😱 Can't wait for next week!!!
Love the tiles! You two get so much done in a week... it's inspiring and daunting. :)
Love the expanded ceiling height and the additional light it provides. Certainly welcoming on housebound days. Excellent concept🙌
Thank you for sharing a bit of your life. Hope all is well!😊
Much to my mum's dismay, my grandma taught me to play hide and seek in Marks & Spencers by hiding in the clothes racks... hes' such a cutie, you are such a lovely mummy to them :) and I LOVE those mis-matched pattern style tiles.The blues look beautiful and match with so many other colours xx
So excited for you all, love your family and you videos.
You clear one mess and then you get another but it will be worth it in the end.
You are a very brave man Dan. LOve the tiles they are gorgeous. The new burner is awesome. That was fun to watch. Thanks for sharing. Hugs
I love that you achieve so much in every video, very satisfying!
Beautiful tiles. Can’t wait to see it all done
So happy for you kids! ❤. Dan, you’re amazing!
The boy's helping their daddy is so adorable, I think it would be safe to say they think he is all that and a bag of chips.👨👩👦👦
Wow those tiles look amazing, it's going to be fantastic when the log burner is in. Well done both of you & the boys for helping lol 😂 xx
Thank you for taking us along on your building adventures💜
I’m with you Dan, make a feature of the fireplace and let the window light up the room.
Great job. I love your choice of tiles!
The vaulted room with the light is great. Keep up the hard work.
I like your thinking about the sacks from the bakery to reflect the history of the building. Wonder if any originals exist anywhere. Interested to see how you plan to use them.
So happy! Looking forward to "seeing" you guys again
Annalise, I would never have put those designs together and yet they look AMAZING! Simply brilliant. Great job - Can you come to the States and decorate my house? :)
Would love to come hehe!!
Karen Powell Good idea, eventually they will be able to do a home exchange if they want!
Gorgeous with light and height and brick chimney exposed
beautiful choice of tiles!!
I'd like to have the ceiling open. Love the beams and looking up to the ceiling. I'd take out the flooring for sure, that space will not be used so enjoy the space... I love the tile design and your choice of tiles. Good job Dan!!! great idea. love the base ...
Loving your videos.
Prepare to be toasty when that pellet stove gets going! Such a sweet little family ❤
When it's your own place, every little bit done is so exciting. Great to see you cracking on and getting it installed.
Put a large ceiling fan up in the peak of the roof to push the warm air down.
That was so interesting seeing you do the fireplace. You are doing such a great job with your helpers !
Love the room open . If this is the kitchen there will be a lot of heat in a small space. Opening will give more room for the heat to move around. I lived in house open to roof and it was wonderful
Blessings to Your Family xoxo 💋
Looks fantastic, great tile choice and wait till the burner's in place... It's very satisfying when it all comes together! 👍🦘
Wow that looks amazing! You guys are really an example to me! I will try to be calm and get some patience like you two have. Thanks guys - I love your vlog
Yes dan, l was thinking the same about the tile- it shows the tile pattern off and less cutting. Very pretty tile choice too. This is exciting. It will be a happy thing when you’re all cosy and admiring the beautiful range area. ❤️
Fabulousness and fabulousness!!!! Love to watch your renovation ✅✅✅✅✅✅
Love the tiles. The future dinning room is going to be beautiful. Such sweet little helpers, love your boys
Love the tiles and so happy you now have a new heating system.
Love those tiles, going to be gorgeous when it's complete! You all work so well together. Thanks for taking us all along with you.
Loving, patient family who are so admirable as well. Going to look amazing with the rafters exposed.❤️
Tiles look nice..good choice.
Dan works hard...be worth it in the end.
Brilliant work Dan, and camera woman and boys!
