Percy is the cutest!!
I almost died laughing when Mummy gave Philip the full mom-glare!!
The chateau is so alive and full of so much talent!!
So much enjoy watching your journey with the Chateau. You have an amazing personality and everyone else is also a pleasure to watch. We watch all of your episodes and brings joy in humanity. Thank you and many wishes for your success
Such a joy to have Mummy and Percy back in full throttle at the chateau. Percy has a wicked sense of humour, they are such a perfect match xxx Sandi x
Hope you get your French Document ! Thought it was amusing how you said, "Basically my family made a sport of marrying foreigners." 😂And your continuing by being with Philip! So, basically, you have a lineage like an American! Those of us who have been here several generations really don't know what nationality we are.
When Philip said that the Chateau you were visiting looked like "the backside of Lalande" I lost it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I totally see what he means, but still can't stop laughing! Thank you Philip I needed the laugh!
The downstairs bathroom looks great! Hadn't realize how much it needed the touch up.
This was a year ago and just yesterday Stephanie and Phillip had their wedding announcement party at Stephanie's mom's beach bungalow in South Africa... in this vlog she was so kind and gracious and lovingly toasted & welcomed Phillip into the family as her new 'son'... it was very sweet and emotional. ❣💗💞💖
I just love Mummy!!! She reminds me so much of my British mother!!!!! “I say these things because I Love you” is her trademark!! Lol
Storytelling with Percy was brilliant 💯 I want more of Percy haha 😂
So good to see wonderful Mummy and Percy back die a time. Drinkies look so good too.
One thing about Isabell is that she doesn’t mince words! 😊
Just what I love! A forthright person indeed! 💛👍🤣
I missed being born in Australia by just a few shillings. Apparently, if a man owed ? money he was put into debtors prison, and my gr grandfather missed it by 'this much' lol Oh well He eventually came to Canada to homestead on free land and made a great success of the little he had. Very proud of his skills and the family he raised. Here's to you Percy !! and to all of you, love this channel - knowing it is a real living breathing family business
Thank you so much, for all the joy! 💛💝💛
For how many years now, I love being able to join in on the parts of your life that you are prepared to share with the world. ❤️
Jared is doing great with the finishing touch to bathroom wallpaper.....
Loved seeing mummy and Percy eating in the hanger x x
Percy adds some great humour, just as 'mummy' does. :)
My favorite preserves are Bonne Maman! I treat myself as the brand is frighteningly expensive. The pancakes look delightful. Glad to see Dan and the boys again.
They sell a large jar of Strawberry at Costco!
What constantly amazes me regarding Amaury’s carpenterial professionalism is the way he purpose builds structures for the job at hand. The doors he constructed so that the dust wouldn’t invade the rest of the house. The structures we saw today holding up the … labelled …
He's a very organized craftsman. He's so talented!
@@kimberlyearly8918 Agreed 100%
Il est surtout hyper canon!!!
So excited for the panelling to start. Please share lots of work and progress and show Aumerie‘s tasks
Love Percy's humour... and don't worry, I'm Aussie descended from many convicts - English, Irish and the Grahams of Scotland... Family history is so interesting, I'm surprised to hear Stephanie didn't know much about her French great grandparents, learn as much as you can because a day will come when you want to know everything! ❤🦘
you must ask questions now... maybe follow the other vlogger shoes and do a dna test.
I'm so glad your mom is back in the chateau. She reminds me so much of my mother 😅💜 From the moment she glared at you on that new mower and drove it as close to that ditch as she possibly could, I've loved her. Thank you all for bringing so much joy to our lives! Percy has got a wicked sense of humor too, love him too!!
My mother would taste what you've prepared and if she liked it she'd say "You can get married now".
The whole scene of having Lunch at the Hanger was sooooo hilarious & adorable & loving & happy ...... & had me in stitches even after I re-watched about 5 times ❣🤣😝😛🤣😝😛🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I recently got my 'carte de sejour' and am now preparing citizenship finally. The British Consulate told me that it didn't make any difference if I took on French nationality I would still be 'British' !
@@ladyangelaIII No I don't have to be of French blood to get citizenship. If needed, there is an old alliance between the French and the Scots ( I am Scottish ) so I could try that but normally it should be straightforward especially as I have been in France for 44 years now.
By doing that you have foiled Brexit. If enough people do that Brexit will be by-passed.
@@ladyangelaIII Not necessarily,! Between the "loi du sang" and "loi du sol", there are in French law several conditions and modalities for the acquisition of French citzenship. But if you are applying on the basis of your French ancestry (loi du sang), oddly enough this can make the process a bit more difficult until you get the requested written proof, depending on whether the ancestor is distant or not. There are sufficient websites from the French government in several languages that explain it all. I married a foreigner and when my children were born, to avoid such difficulties, with the French administration, I immediately had them registered at the French Embassy/Consulate. They have dual citizenship, so do my grandchildren. I am an history freak, never very fond of Bonaparte, but now saying that Bonapartes are not welcome in France is an absurd cliché.
@@ladyangelaIII 🤣
@@ladyangelaIII The Bonaparte are still living in France. Some with the name Bonaparte, others with the name Waleski. What are you speaking of ?!
Henri may hate heating because he's still traumatized from the fire, poor guy
Your in Limoges !
😂🤣
You might be right! 👻
@2:10 very Very funny. And Very well delivered. 😂
Love seeing Cranberry Spode. I had a set for 10 from 1917 . Of course it was stolen from my storage. Really good to see it.
SOOOOO glad you're keeping the paneling color. I too love its soft worn elegance....
I snort laughed at the barn lunch conversations and mummies frugal brioche portions. So fun to see you having these precious times together ❤️
Fabulous work all. Can't wait to see the grand salon completed. Dan's boys are adorable and I am so glad they got to see Wmuary on TV. LOL. You do have many peacocks now. Congratulations on becoming French Stephanie. Have a great week all and see you in the next vlog.
Great job Jared! The jewel box of the first floor is so serene now!
The Grand salon will be gorgeous!!! Thanks to everyone and amori aka thor
Venetian mimosa! Champagne and peach juice. Mmm mmm mmm
Dearest Stephanie, your vlogs make me so happy, God bless you and all of your dear ones there…..good luck with all of your endeavors. You are so brave and positive and resilient. Mmm I adore French bread, when I was stationed there I practically existed on French bread and wine.❤❤❤😅
Percy that is hilarious x but you are the gent in the family x
I laughed at Percy’s family history because my Mother was always afraid to research her mother’s lineage because of what she might find!! Brought me a wonderful memory!
A great vlog. Percy sharing his family criminal history had me in stitches. It's so nice that guests feel 'part of the family ' after a few days. I too would buy the Château, it looked stunning
Wonderful video Stephanie! Can't wait to see progress on the grand salon!🤩
Percy you’re the man!
I love your blue, woodland themed bathroom. It is the most beautiful bathroom I have ever seen. The room Amoury is working on will be a dream. I am so thrilled waiting for it to be finished.
That is such a beautiful wall paper in the loo! Congratulations on your soon to be French citizenship! Magnifique!
The plates were made by the company George Jones and sons. I recognised the mark as soon as you turned the plate over.
Wow if I had to get all that stuff together to be a citizen somewhere I would have said “never mind “😂
How wonderful to see Angela. I’m so excited for her being there. I told her how great a time I had.
Mummy and Percy are wonderful
In the US there are wonderful electric heaters that look like wood burning stoves..I own an cream colored one...it is beautiful....they are made by Duraflame they are top heating using infrared (tubes) instead of coils...no heat on the surface or sides...They cost between $270.00 and $290.00 each...and you would love them..You need them everywhere. They are called "Duraflame 3D infrared cream electric fireplace stove with remote control" I keep warm all winter with mine and it looks very attractive with its 3D flame effect...I'm telling you about it because I want you warm and cozy without problems this winter and you can plug them in wherever you have an outlet.
Your idea is great. They have some electrical heaters at Lalande also. One by Natti's desk and one by Stephanie's as they sit quietly there for hours. Everyone else loves the kitchen and laundry as they are warm rooms.
Oh my Goodness! Got to love the French bureaucracies! Bonne chance Stephanie!
Congratulations on becoming French!!! We’ll done 👏 I recently was able to get Austrian citizenship thanks to my Dad. So glad to be European again.
🥳🥳🥳💖👱♀️💖👏👏👏
Are you going to move to Austria ??? I’m European to and I do believe to be citizen of the country that is giving my bred .
@@bethm3624 Hi Beth! No we’re in France too, it’s just that after Brexit it was very important to me to remain European to make it easier to be in France. My Austrian passport now allows me to do that in a way that my British passport no longer does.
Stephanie, I bet Henri hates the heating because in his time there wasn’t anything but the fireplaces. He doesn’t think the other systems are worthy of a chateau! ❤️🙏🏼🇺🇸
That was my first thought when she said it. He doesn't like the new things coming into the Chateau he wants it kept the way it was when he was there.
Maybe he's trying to tell her it's time to rethink the entire heating system in the château.
@@rayn8740 The renovation of the heating system starts this fall with the wood burners in the fireplaces. In the Spring the Geothermal system and radiators will be renovated. Yeah.
Your roosters are gorgeous..
The bathroom wallpaper is especially lovely..
Percy is such a dear! ❤️
🇬🇧🇨🇦 I call my children the "Heinz 57 variety". Sounds a bit like you Stephanie lol 🇨🇦🇬🇧
I just love your vlogs, so filled with variety and funny! The realness is the best! Never knew Percy was so funny!
Philippe and his plates, your mommy’s response was so good! A museum!!!
Ugh. Protect the painting in the hall -- it's gonna get bumped into. As always, a joy.
The food looks delicious. I love a nice salad with mint and pear.
Percy....I can't even see it....I can't stop laughing!
You mum is hilarious 😂
As always, delightful. Dan's little boys are so sweet and lively and Amaury is an artist, an absolute artist.
Hope you managed to get the plumbing fixed. You need to get Henri on your side. Go to the room you feel him most or associate with him, light a candle and gently ask for his help to look after the chateau. Tell him he is important and is a part of your family now. Try giving him a job to do, like making sure the roof does not leak, or the chapel is protected. Recognise his love for the chateau and that everyone is working to keep the chateau a home and haven that many people love. Hope it works. Congratulations on getting your citizenship and for all the lovely work being done at Lalande.
Just watching DIY what a wonderful thing you have done keeping your dear fathers memories alive by turning one of his paintings into wallpaper so great well done to Gerald and yourself, god bless you x
What a joyous and entertaining video this was with plenty of Lalande fun and frivolity. I really needed that today! Thank you Stephanie and a big congrats for FINALLY achieving your French certificate. You must have already and single handedly, put France and it’s Chateaux on the world stage. 👏💐💖
Got to love Percy!
I love this video, will watch over and over, thank you, love you all🌼😊🌻❤️🇺🇸
What an exciting vlog so much happening. Love seeing everybody in their everyday life. Where is Maria that she is not cooking ?
Dans boys are so adorable 🥰just had to say that…. playing in the kitchen seems like the château needed the sound of kiddos & hedgehog ‘s 🦔playing …
What happened to my post re Isabelle’s comment “if you keep buying plates for the rest of your life it would be like living in a mausoleum”! Had a good laugh. She gets to the heart of every situation and brings order and balance. Lucky to have her in your life.
Such a fun and joyful vlog. So excited Amaury is starting on the grande salon. Cracked up at Philip’s comment regarding the backside of LaLande. Dan is looking really happy and his boys are so adorable. Amaury does look like Thor. All he needs is that big hammer🤣🤣🤣Thanks for sharing 😍😘
Am so proud of Dan and he looks so happy and stephanie is such a great friend you all are encouraging each other its so Beautiful to see XX💖😊💖XX
A fun video, Stephanie. Always fun hanging out with family and friends!
As always, a pleasure to spend time with you and all the LaLanders. I will definitely take a look at your tour of the chateau that is for sale. Thanks Stephanie🙏🏻❤️
I wouldn’t touch the panels…the patina is to die for!
Oh so absolutely over the moon about the Grand salon. Big smiles all around. happy moments. xx
Did you actually introduce the new arrival? I didn’t hear her name? Lovely video as usual.🥰🙋🏼♀️ I keep wondering , do you use the kitchen stove daily once the cold has arrived? It would make the kitchen so warm and cozy for everyone to gather and work, it throws off lots of heat I’ve heard.
I was wondering the exact same thing. What is her name???
She seems to have accidentally edited her name out
Beautiful Stephanie. Xx 😘
Percy , Your Adorable 👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great idea using pastels for shrinkage
On wallpaper
What could be better than to enjoy early morning on a cool day. The rose is beautiful, and my favorite color. It's so nice to have free time for family and friends. Life is so short. Opening up your home to others is so heart felt. Glad you received your french document..looking forward to seeing film, on the chateau for sale.
Ohhh ! I will love to see the new dishes !
Stephanie, your mother and Percy are so funny they have made my day, love the criminal story. Get Percy to tell us more funny stories.
Cannot wait to see it! Sad to see your cold coming... Australian spring is being very shy. Where I am, sometimes we have autumn almost all year. I have a new garden and am anxious to plant out but it keeps raining.
@@juliad368 I couldn't agree more. I moved to QLD 7 years ago from Sydney and the humidity is killing me, but at 59 and given money couldn't afford to move, mind you Sydney gets humid too but there's more of a reprieve. Anyway, it's better cooler than intense heat in my opinion.
The shed is a great eating spot. An outdoor heater will extend its use.
As for Philip’s penchant for the ongoing purchase of plates, keep in mind that like the top-notch quality and variety of gourmet meals being served to unanimous acclaim and to the envy of many Chateau Diaries viewers, guests must also be kept constantly impressed by the wealth of elegant table settings they are graciously treated to at each hosted dining occasion. I might even send along a suitable dinnerware set if I come across one that is available at a European Union member state shop rather than from the USA, mainly to avoid hefty shipping costs on my end and the payment of excessive French custom duties by Lalande.
By the way, how were the apricot nectar bellinis? Are peach bellinis still preferred?
Geez! What an exercise getting your French certificate I would have been so stressed, but you do it all with a smile. Love your positivity Stephanie. The brunch looked yummy too.
I am so sorry about the leaks. It is awful. We are getting our documentation together for the application of the crate de séjour. 😳😩🤪. What an enchanted vlog. Thank you
Isabelle is always right. She is a very clever and perceptive woman. ❤
"What I have learned from all this is my family practically made it a sport to marry foreigners."😂😂😂 You know what they say, "It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it!"♥️
Percy is a Prince 🤴
I will try peach in my tuna and chicken salas. I am in Texas and some people put a little diced Granny Smith apple or like my family we put a luittle bit of pineapple tidbits. Not chunks. . . tidbits. Artichoke hearts, mayo, relish, pimento, diced onion, and lots of diced up boiled egg. XOXO
Been Watching for ever bit I'm so delighted to find out you have a bot of Irish in you.. we do get everywhere. My kids too are part andaluz/catalan/Irish the Irish being me
.... mamy. Cuidado mile falta
Céad mile fàilte
Percys family Story, thanks for the laugh😁
Oh and I forgot to say, wow, just wow the Chapel looks magnificent
Anything with a base of fried onions can have grated courgette/zucchini added. People who don't like them don't even notice they are in there! I did not even notice there was an issue with the wallpaper!
Thank you for the video!
So Laugher didn't leave for the other Chateau. Her brother and sister have been in vlogs in their new favorite spot, a big tree. 😘😘😘
Whoopsy! I cut myself off. Anyhoo, the structures he built for the various pieces of the panelling for easy access on the work site demonstrate his commitment to the project at hand. Nothing is off the cuff for him. Amaury is beyond a treasure. I anticipate great vlogs documenting the panelling project. I get the feeling that he has been itching to get started but that he has the professionalism to have the patience for the wood to acclimate to the salon’s environment.
Amaury also did the work in the Marquis's Salon on the new half paneling and learned how to do a hidden door. He set up the frames in the Grand Salon and is ready to work with the antique paneling now. Yeah!!
Caroline Gooder. I couldn’t have said it better myself! That hidden door! But the wonderful thing about Amaury as this carpentier extraordinaire is, that due to his passion for ‘the wood”, in other words, is for the craft and his curiosity involved which drives his desire to learn new techniques which will make him improve as a craftsman. Oh dear. I fear that last sentence may not be grammatically correct but … you get my drift … I hope.
Loved seeing Dan and the boys at the end. His Escape to Rural France - episode 18, (popped up the other day right after seeing his vlog announcing his château purchase ) - when he, Annalise and the boys first saw the château 🤗 Had to have been about two years ago?
Yes, it popped up on my RUclips list also. Good planning Dan. 😘😘
9:31 Jared wore a really classy Chinese shirt there
Ms. Stephanie and Jared…you might need to spray some fixative to the areas where the pastels has been put so as to preserve it…😊 Also, there’s a gloss and matte finish…depends on what is the finish of the rest of the wallpapers…
Another awesome vlog! ❤ Can't wait to see the the transformation of the grand salon!! 🥰🥰🥰 also I hope those guys come back and fit those log burners before winter hits ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Me too 🤞
@@TheChateauDiaries Cant understand why they didnt check her height before attempting it......grrr grrr grrr...🤣🤣🤣 Sending lady luck your way 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow that is a lot to find to get your French citizenship. I don't think I could find all that info for myself.
Isabelle and Percy you guys are so adorable and mummy you’re super hilarious x awesome vlog too bad missed the premiere 😢
Again, a lovely vlog with a variety of activities and LaLanders. But the stories of Percy's criminal ancestors was my favorite.
Every time you drive up to the château I think it's so beautiful. But I can't believe that you have plans to remove the shutters 😱
That rose gave me emchanting vibes ✨
Last courgette!
And now your dating foriegn:) love all of you La Landers. Love watching the beautiful woodwork and redecor with the beautiful past. Don't see that anymore, just white boxes to live in now. Great job so beautiful
I'm with you Percy, I, have a convict ancestor transported to Australia (stole 22 brooms as a 16yr old) 🤣they have character I say!!!
He must have really loved cleaning!
Well often things weren't that simple, in many cases people did the things to find an Out as such. I have researched and many were in dire straights (differences in status of living between poor and rich), to be transported often was to find a new beginning rather be stuck in the places they were in and the feeling of hopelessness.
Jared is amazingly creative and artistic
