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
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
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!!
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
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. ❤️
So good to see wonderful Mummy and Percy back die a time. Drinkies look so good too.
Storytelling with Percy was brilliant 💯 I want more of Percy haha 😂
Jared is doing great with the finishing touch to bathroom wallpaper.....
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 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
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!
One thing about Isabell is that she doesn’t mince words! 😊
Just what I love! A forthright person indeed! 💛👍🤣
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!!!
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.
Your roosters are gorgeous..
The bathroom wallpaper is especially lovely..
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 ?!
Mummy and Percy are wonderful
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 ❣🤣😝😛🤣😝😛🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
SOOOOO glad you're keeping the paneling color. I too love its soft worn elegance....
Henri may hate heating because he's still traumatized from the fire, poor guy
Your in Limoges !
😂🤣
You might be right! 👻
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.
The Grand salon will be gorgeous!!! Thanks to everyone and amori aka thor
I snort laughed at the barn lunch conversations and mummies frugal brioche portions. So fun to see you having these precious times together ❤️
Venetian mimosa! Champagne and peach juice. Mmm mmm mmm
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!
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.
Percy you’re the man!
Great job Jared! The jewel box of the first floor is so serene now!
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.❤❤❤😅
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
That is such a beautiful wall paper in the loo! Congratulations on your soon to be French citizenship! Magnifique!
@2:10 very Very funny. And Very well delivered. 😂
Percy is such a dear! ❤️
How wonderful to see Angela. I’m so excited for her being there. I told her how great a time I had.
Got to love Percy!
Wonderful video Stephanie! Can't wait to see progress on the grand salon!🤩
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.
Ugh. Protect the painting in the hall -- it's gonna get bumped into. As always, a joy.
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!!!
As always, delightful. Dan's little boys are so sweet and lively and Amaury is an artist, an absolute artist.
Oh and I forgot to say, wow, just wow the Chapel looks magnificent
I wouldn’t touch the panels…the patina is to die for!
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.
The food looks delicious. I love a nice salad with mint and pear.
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.
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
You mum is hilarious 😂
Great idea using pastels for shrinkage
On wallpaper
Percy , Your Adorable 👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Oh so absolutely over the moon about the Grand salon. Big smiles all around. happy moments. xx
Isabelle is always right. She is a very clever and perceptive woman. ❤
Jared is amazingly creative and artistic
That rose gave me emchanting vibes ✨
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. 👏💐💖
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.
Wow if I had to get all that stuff together to be a citizen somewhere I would have said “never mind “😂
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 …
Oh my Goodness! Got to love the French bureaucracies! Bonne chance Stephanie!
Last courgette!
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.
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
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.
I have developed a love for the song, “A bell epoch”
A fun video, Stephanie. Always fun hanging out with family and friends!
So excited for the panelling to start. Please share lots of work and progress and show Aumerie‘s tasks
It took me 7 years to get the German government to confirm that I was still German after I became Canadian! I definitely feel your pain.
The shed is a great eating spot. An outdoor heater will extend its use.
The dead donkey was hysterical !!
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🙏🏻❤️
9:31 Jared wore a really classy Chinese shirt there
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.
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.
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.
Ohhh ! I will love to see the new dishes !
Evening from Cubelles Spain
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?
The driving music is SO 60s European.
I adore the transition music. It will always remind me of happy moments in 2020 and 2021
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.
If I may give you an advice, being French myself, never throw food such as brioche to the floor for animals. That is a big faux pas in France.
"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 🤴
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!
Brilliant video! Life is a party there in Stephanie world!! Thanks!!
Mummy is a human cat. The judgment is real! 🤣
Loved that music at the beginning (woman singing in French). Gorgeous wallpaper in the bathroom!
Percys family Story, thanks for the laugh😁
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. 😘😘😘
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
Just have a quiet word to Henri. Explain you need to stay warm with the NEW heating, so you can look after his beautiful Chateau and that’s what you want to do most of all.
Wow that is a lot to find to get your French citizenship. I don't think I could find all that info for myself.
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
Olive bread is my favorite!!
Naming off everything you need for a French Residency all I can think of is 12 days of Christmas
😂
My father is also a painter. He gave me one of his largest paintings, maybe a little smaller then your father's. The only wall in house it fits on is in the laundry room
I have one of my stepmother's in a hallway, as it is too big. It is hard to see it at that angle. 😘😘
Philip playing the piano was lovely.
Never seen live before…Yay!!
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.
