    Ditto on the blinky, fading, flashing lights. Just constant is perfect.

    I cracked up when Pickles took a swipe at the snowman and knocked it off the radiator. I love your natural tree look and your choice of music....well done on all accounts and of course mixed with some humour.

    How fabulous is George Michael! 🤗😂 I hate blinky, fading, flashing lights. I bet we pay extra for all of those features but I prefer just constant on, no fuss! 😂. Your tree is beautiful. Well done all!

      I love your chateau! I love how all of your videos show the beauty in the things the way they were, the cottage for example is so beautiful. Your love of animals and wonderful humor makes watching your videos that much better:) I also love how Lincoln is always so calm and collective. Thanks for sharing!

    I love that your content is so good. Kudos for the awesome editing. So many chateaux you tubers rely on super fancy constructed intros and epic drone shots as massive filler. Then its 20 minutes of someone painting gold detail and 20 minutes of them talking like wooden statues. So what I'm really saying is I think you guys do an outstanding job on content , editing, and just everything. Please don't change. So many channels get a million followers and then just dial that crap in once a month. Chef's kiss!

    Seeing your lights reminded me of the years I lived in Germany. Lights were so expensive and they never seemed to go on sale after Christmas, so if you wanted them, you just had to bite the bullet. Your lights are lovely.

    @sheilahartnagle6114 Год назад +1

    George Michael looks awesome. If the door behind the door has a doorknob, i would tie it to the dooeknob and maybe a door hinges. I have had to do that because of the cats. I live snowflakes and have lots on my tree.

    For people who have pets who like to mess with your trees there is a simple solution, tie your trees to your walls. It is so easy with some fishing line and eye hooks. I have been doing it for forty years. Paint the hooks the color of your wall and leave them in all year.

    I had a pair of dogs, one also a tripod, who would take off occasionally for several hours. When they were found and back home, I made sure to shower them with hugs and treats. When they ran off again, it was only for a short while and they knew they would be greeted with hugs and treats. It's what they do. Air tags are wonderful!

    @turawolfe2841 Год назад +36

    It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!! I always tied my Christmas up to a wall light after the first time my cat knocked the tree down. Then he sat up in the tree til I took it down. Cats are wonderful, amazing creatures. Oh also very smart! Merry Christmas to you and yours! So glad the dogs are home! Thanks for the fun of watching you guys!!!

    • @elisabethbenders-hyde5286
      @elisabethbenders-hyde5286 Год назад +4

      We have a very old house and our floors slant away so we've always tied the tree down to a wall. Just walking past it would send it toppling. Thank heavens our cat didn't seem interested last year, hopefully, it won't be again this year.

    • @turawolfe2841
      @turawolfe2841 Год назад +3

      All of my cats climbed the Christmas tree every year. It was amazing and too cute! Glad we had that wall sconce right by the 10 foot tree. Memories! Now I am so old that I do not have a tree anymore! Good luck with your tree and the climbers. Merry Christmas!@@elisabethbenders-hyde5286

    Your Christmas tree is so beautiful.....simple flighting and ornaments of natural pinecones.....snowflakes.....very pretty. It looks charming in your new lounge and such a cosy place for your family......furry ones, included. Hoping the kitties keep out of the tree and the doggies stay home.....and the donkeys enjoy their sweet and cosy stall. Merry Christmas from snowy Colorado! Cheers!

    The tree is lovely. We always had cats, the tree was anchored with heavy duty string to something so the cats couldn't topple it! Special breakable ornaments were hung higher so they couldn't bat them off to the floor! We loved our cats and a nice tree. Happy Holidays!

Cats hate the smell of orange so you could try to put orange peel in it maybe they stay away .And hey I could never imagine Christmas without George Michael ( last Christmas that is ). Happy Season to you all 🌲🎄💚

    So lovely and cozy! Atmosphere is perfect. Yes, it is always work, to get those lights up but worth it in the end. No sense over decorating because you only need to take it all back down sooner than you think! It is work just taking it all down again!
    Love little Pickle lol It is so much fun when our animals have those moments, I love the Chateau, and how it is decorated. Such cute ideas and such talent you have, to think of all of these ideas!

    When we visited Europe at Christmas one year, we too noticed that trees weren't up as early as here in the U.S....people were walking around still buying their trees. I believe it's because they celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas as they were originally meant to be ---From Christmas Day though to Epiphany. It's rather sad that here in the U.S. many people rip their trees down the morning after Christmas Day! Your tree is LOVELY!

    I had to laugh when I saw the dripping icicle lights ✈️ and the others where the setting fades . I cringe when I see that and when my husband and I have put lights outdoors in the past we’ve had the same experience and reaction. Yours was much calmer. I think mine was like how fast can you get them down ! George Michael is fabulous!! Your tree is just beautiful! Simple elegance. I love the donkeys, the cats and the runaway dogs. A wonderful vlog. Merry Christmas to you ,Lincoln and family.Peace on earth🕊️🎄

    Christmas trees are essentially cat toy display systems. Your tree is spectacular. In America, our trees are basically hedges because of the extreme shearing done. There is no room to hang an ornament straight.

    I would totally be freaking out if my pup went missing for two hours, you are not alone with the drama where animals are concerned. The music you chose was perfect fore Coif-ing George Michael lol 🤣💗🦊 Aww, I feel for you, losing sentimental ornaments. I lost 3 generations of ornaments and an Italian Papier Mache nativity, to a flooded basement... Now I rarely decorate. What I do have to decorate with is perfunctory dollar store dreck, it almost saddens me MORE to use it than not! 🤗💗🦊 Your tree turned out quite lovely!

    In Belgium we have our Christmas tree up from after St Nicolas day on the 6 th of december until 3 kings day on the 6 th of january. I too have several cats and only decorate with only glass baubles and ornaments. To prevent the cats pushing the tree over we attatch it with a rope to a hook in the wall. Furthermore I hang sleigh bells on the bottom( I then hear if the cats are under or up the tree) and I put a fleece under the tree. Always have several cats on the fleece under the tree. I have about 200 crochet snowflakes that I bought from a Canadian lady on Ebay. I use them very often and the make a wonderful tree. Your tree is wonderful! Love the natural feel of it! Stylish and very fitting in your interiour. Happy Holidays!

    The tree is gorgeous! We haven't put one up yet, not much room, too many big kids that often wrestle or throw things in the house...I foresee the tree going up late and taken down early. My nice ornaments will not be hung. You have cats, my teenage hoodlums are a big bigger.
    We found frozen, whole, big turkeys for .25¢ per pound this week so grabbed 3. #1 is nearly thawed, roasting tomorrow after I bake the pumpkins pies. The house will smell great! I look forward to cold leftover turkey sandwiches for a few days!
    I wish you a happy weekend and pre holiday fun. Thank you for sharing your life and beautiful home.
    I screen shotted your beautiful entry stairs, planters, vines and doors. I hope to do a watercolor of it, it's so pretty! Take care, keep warm, hugs to all the naughty critters big and small. ❤
