That was lovely! Such a beautiful place, I wouldn’t have wanted to leave there. I can not imagine going on holiday with my family and having it be that peaceful. Thank you for taking us with you.
Hello there from New Zealand I’ve just found your channel I’m in love everything I adore such a gem your family just adorable I’m going to enjoy binge watching all your videos 💖👏Your holiday to France ooh lalaa the villa pool lounging in the sun shade I’m relaxed alreadyI felt for you not feeling the best on the ferry I wonder how Id do crossing the strait from north island to the South Island via our ferry it sometimes breaks down🤔Wine tasting visit I can relate to your husband after a wine taste in a wine shop I wobbled back to the car my husband smiling enchante Thankyou for the joy just fabulous 💖💖😍😍👌👌🌟
Morning! Oh goodness don’t binge watch 😝 you’ll be sick of the sight of me in no time. I think I’d you’re not wobbly after a wine tasting then you’re doing it wrong 😂😂😂 x
What a lovely holiday! Your three boys were so cute in the pool. Fresh figs look divine. So nice to see you on TH-cam again. I’ve been watching vlogs from a year ago just to see your projects and gorgeous home. ❤
Lovely to catch up ,,on holiday,,,,Lovely,,!!!! Oh wow,,,the wasps have been so bad here the last few weeks,,,,drives me crazy!!! Glad all UR sweet animals were Ok,,,, Sweet Gayna,,,,Thanks,,, Elaine💖💖🏡🏡
Precious family time in a beautiful place, how wonderful! Just having a giggle at the thought of you bringing home a decorative jar of snails and discovering them all coming back to life 😉😂😂. Thank you for sharing Cuckoo, reminded me of happy family holidays when my boys were young. Xx
An you imagine! That would have been awful, I could have been the person who brought over an invasive species of snail to eat all our crops. Horrors! Or maybe I’d just have been the person with little white snails crawling all over the house 🤣
Coucou Cuckoo, what a lovely surprise to see your holiday vlog. Ah, the Provence. It is charming. I love it here in Normandy but I love staying in the south. During the heatwave I'm always happy to be here where it is raining, windy and much much cooler. 😄And a pool would be nice. But our garden is on a slope and on top of a big old cave. So not going to happen. But the sea is only a few minutes away. So I should not be complaining.😐 Your boys are the sweetest. And little Timmy.....I love that little face. Gros bisous💗💗💗
I think I’d be happy living any where in France. Even if just for the bakeries! But I do have a soft spot for the south and for the alps. One day I’ll explore the whole country, first I need to see all of the UK though x
Lovely holiday, I know what you mean when you get back from holidays you get that mixed feeling of not wanting it to end but glad to be home. It takes me a week or so to get back into my rhythm. ❤
What a lovely holiday vlog I’m like you sea ferry crossings are the pits it’s my inner ear & I suffer tinnitus in one ear ( like a demented wasp ) my earring aids have helped I could smell Provence heat figs blossom so beautiful THANK YOU BALLARD FAMILY all of you for sharing 💙💜❤️
Thank you for sharing your lovely holiday! Beautiful blue skies and sunshine! Hope the return crossing was more comfortable for you and coming home is always more bearable when you have crazy dogs waiting at home for you! Lots of love WW xx
Happily we caught the euro tunnel home so I wasn’t sicky. Thank goodness! I’m gutted I felt poorly though because I’d like to do a cruise through the Norwegian fjords.
I felt your excitement as you were on the way there, I feel the relaxation and peace at the pool 🏊♀️... I'm still watching so I'll chime in later! 😜 I need a vacation now.🐚⛵️🏖
Thank you for sharing your holiday. I've not been on holiday to France since 2012 (not counting 3 days at Euro Disney in March for my daughter's 40th) and it made me realise how much I love it. The pool looked lovely and cool.
I think some people love them and some hate them. I just find them erratic and they stress me out 😂 My friend Emily says she will take her beloved ones down when I visit, isn’t that sweet of her ☺️
Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, Oh what a Holiday , Fantastic, weather so beautiful too 😊, is it your villa ? You know how nosy I am 😂😂, Take Care Love X❤
Lovely holiday those figs looked tasty so much nicer when picked fresh, on the sicky feeling felt your pain I suffer too but eat ginger biscuits or sip ginger drinks it really helps 😊
omgoodness....the last time I was on a car ferry (Wales to Ireland in Gale force winds) was horrifying...I never wish to experience that ever again. Seeing your face brought back to memory.....Hope you enjoyed your time in France!
I can't knit well in the car either I have discovered. I have been on that Dover ferry, sorry you got sick :) Thanks for showing us your little french holiday!
I don’t know why I don’t get on with knitting in the car. I guess the mood has to take me really. Mostly I prefer to nap and nose about. I’m off to Winky today to see my dad, I’ll give the old town your love x
Have you done one of those super thanks thingies?! Wow! This is my first one and I didn’t know it showed up this way. Gosh! Thank you so much ☺️ that was so unexpected and kind. I’ll treat myself to a proper coffee shop coffee and say cheers to you, Brenda xxx
My mom couldn't stand wind chimes (a spider did damage to one of her ears) but after she passed my dad loved them. We always had aluminum pans tied in the garden to scare away critters but she seldom went to the garden--she would ask us if she wanted something special. Ah, memories of those hot end of summer days preserving the garden. Hard work but well worth it.
Great to be brought along on your holidays in France 🇫🇷 always good to see you and your lovely family ❤️, now it’s soon 🍂🍁time for a cozy autumn 🍂 with lots of knitting in the grow of the warm Candles 🔥🍂
oh Gayna so good to see you again . your trip looked lovely . try putting hand sanitizer on wasp stings it has worked for me to take the sting out in the past . hugs Beth
Looked like a wonderful holiday 🥰👌 Those figs 🤤 Haha I don’t like windchimes either unless their bamboo. Thank you for sharing 💕 I bet my 3 girls would have loved that pool as much as your 3 boys 💕 Xx Maria
I’ve just worked out it’s £7.20 pounds a gallon here which is $8.93 so you wanna fill up where you are. I wonder how much it will be in a few years time. Bonkers!!
That was lovely! Such a beautiful place, I wouldn’t have wanted to leave there. I can not imagine going on holiday with my family and having it be that peaceful. Thank you for taking us with you.
I love how much you all seem to love one another 💗💗
We really do love each other, it’s the thing that makes me most happy in life. We genuinely adore each other. I’m ever so grateful ☺️

Lovely holiday, I know what you mean when you get back from holidays you get that mixed feeling of not wanting it to end but glad to be home. It takes me a week or so to get back into my rhythm. ❤
I often find re-entry hard but I usually find the going on holiday much more difficult.
What a wonderful holiday. Thank you for taking us along. The figs and cheese looked lovely.
They were so yummy 🤤
So good to see you Gayna ❤ Timmy has my heart too. ❤ Suze 🤗🥰 xxx
He is such a special little fella. I love him to bits 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I could smell Provence heat figs blossom so beautiful THANK YOU BALLARD FAMILY all of you for sharing 💙💜❤️
I hadn’t considered that my hearing problems my contribute to the motion sickness. Poor us, hey?!!

@@talesfromcuckooland sadly we have to cross the Irish Sea to come over to see family and it’s horrendous 🤮
I felt your excitement as you were on the way there, I feel the relaxation and peace at the pool 🏊♀️... I'm still watching so I'll chime in later! 😜
I need a vacation now.🐚⛵️🏖
I could do with another one now 😂
Thank you for sharing your holiday. I've not been on holiday to France since 2012 (not counting 3 days at Euro Disney in March for my daughter's 40th) and it made me realise how much I love it. The pool looked lovely and cool.
I love holidaying in France, it has a special feeling about it. X
Gorgeous Gayna!
Lovely to see you all enjoying your holiday, the boys are growing up to fast! 🙌🙌🥰🤗😺💙💛💙💛💙💛
Lovely holiday, house looked beautiful, boys looked like they had a great time xx
I love wind chimes and have quite a few in my garden...I find them soothing😊
I think some people love them and some hate them. I just find them erratic and they stress me out 😂 My friend Emily says she will take her beloved ones down when I visit, isn’t that sweet of her ☺️
I think wind chimes are the height of rudeness, making noise when you’re not even home.
Lovely holiday full of fabulous memories xxx
It really was a lovely holiday. It’s a rare day that I don’t want to come home but I could have stayed there for ages!
What a lovely vacay spot!
I love it there, it’s so beautiful. X
Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, Oh what a Holiday , Fantastic, weather so beautiful too 😊, is it your villa ? You know how nosy I am 😂😂, Take Care Love X❤

That sounds dreadful and luckily it was pretty calm for our crossing but I still felt grim. 🙄
Hi Gayna, So glad to see your podcast! Missed seeing you. Your hair cut is adorable and you look great! Looks like you had a nice family holiday.
Thank you so much!

Okay, finished. Thank you for sharing, Gayns!. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Glad you all could go and have a lovely time. 🥰
Sorry- Gayna!
Happy to be called Gayns, feels friendly 🥰

Great to be brought along on your holidays in France 🇫🇷 always good to see you and your lovely family ❤️, now it’s soon 🍂🍁time for a cozy autumn 🍂 with lots of knitting in the grow of the warm Candles 🔥🍂
I am ready for autumn! So very happy to see the leaves turning and the air smelling of damp soil. X
Loving the crickets xxx
Aaawww, I love my boys ❤ and you lady….hottie xxxx
Thank you for taking me along on your holiday… I had a fantastic time ❤️
Timmy looked very pleased to see you!
I think he was. I’m sure he missed me, he acted like he had. X
Glad you all had a wonderful holiday 😊

Lovely holiday 😊
How fun ❤ 💦thanks for sharing your lovely Holiday 😊🦋☀️🧶💕💫
1.63 liter gas … fill me up!!! $5.65 per gallon Seattle, WA.
I’ve just worked out it’s £7.20 pounds a gallon here which is $8.93 so you wanna fill up where you are. I wonder how much it will be in a few years time. Bonkers!!
Love your white dress Gaynor, where is that from?
Looked like a fun holiday 😊
That was an eBay find. I typed in Edwardian cotton night dress and this popped up. X
I dislike windchimes and I don't even have tinnitus. Lol😂
How long were you on the ferry?
It’s about 1.5 hours crossing so not too long.
Not a fan of wind chimes too!
