I love that you are leaving some natural Stone with lime plaster visible. It's so pretty. Between LaLande and your home, I don't know how you do it. You are a hard-working person, as is Analise. I love your boys, and all your pets and critters! 🙏🏻💗⚜️❣️⚜️💗🙏🏻
Dan you and your wife are such lovely people! I am very impressed with both of your parenting! SO patient. Those boys are very blessed. You are two wonderful humans! I LOVE this vlog! Thank you for sharing your life. Always love your wife and treasure her. She is beautiful and such a gem! Those boys will grow up to be great men....like their father!
I have just found your vlogs having been watching others from France since the summer. I like what I have seen so far and am looking forward to catching up over the coming weeks. Good luck to you all.
Oh I am sooo glad I found you both/all! You are taking me back down memory lane with living rough whilst building and starting from scratch with two little boys!! YES!!
💖👑👑💖x you have such a beautiful wife and sons .please everyone dont forget to watch the advertisement and share the channel plus tell all your friends about this adorable family its going to be an amazing journey. Thank you for allowing us to share in your journey 💖👑👑💖xxxxx
@@escapetoruralfrance ~ don't wish the time away Dan, it goes too quickly as it is. Know it is a reference: ) ... one day , without you and your lovely wife knowing it the children are all grown up!!! Enjoy every moment, as it looks like you do. All best wishes in all your endeavours, greetings from England ~
I’ve come back to the beginning of your journey from the château daily vlogs. It’s wonderful to see where you and your beautiful family began. My parents were Dan and Anneliese. 🤗
I love that Dan and Annalise don't let the children be any discomfort to them when they are working on projects. Cool parenting. Lots of love there !!!
Jack is so darned cute, from his kissing mommy to helping daddy. The window needs just a touch more foam? Maybe you should have let Jack do it? lol sorry I had to say it. The little house is so sweet like a honeymoon cottage. I can't wait for you next post. bye all
I think I’ve seen all of your vlogs now, and I must say, your boys are just the cutest little guys ever! I love how Jack likes to do whatever his daddy does. 💕
I just discovered this channel. Oh my! I will be binge watching it for the next few days. From this retired teacher/grandma, I love watching y’all work, live and play.
Hello Dan and family, loved your Vlog. My husband and I started in much the same way as you, building whilst babies were being born, no water and building bit by bit when money was available. No internet or TH-cam back then. We lived in remote outback Australia. Life was good, full of dreams and always chores and projects. We learnt how to be resourceful. Years later we are still at it. We are building a new house now after buying 140 acres of cow paddock - not living there yet, Covid put the brakes on hard however we will be ready to proceed and finish the shed/barn and move up there when we are out of Lockdown. Your family is adorable. Keep on Vlogging. Thank you for sharing your home and family. Kind regards.
Wow, your kids are certainly lucky to have such lovely parents, so patient and kind - - what a great place to grow up. I'm looking forward to watching your adventures.
Hi Dan, great to see you have your own vlog👍🏻😁. You are one hardworking guy‼️ lots of work for you to do and many things to accomplish 😊 I look forward to it all😁👏🏻👏🏻
Wow what a lovely video!! Reminded me so much of my childhood watching my parents renovate our family home! Loving the vlogs! Looking forward to the next one ! X
Dad’s little helper/apprentice, gorgeous! Soon he will be a proficient little builder. The best way of learning is being hands on at a very young age. Keep the vlogs coming. Love watching your young family making things happen.
Renovation life! It's not for everyone but eventually rewarding. Your son is very observant and he's learning so much from you both! Can't wait to see more. 😉
Hi, I'm coming from Stephanie's vlog too. Your videos remind me a lot of my home, when my parents build our house and everything was a mess. I loved every minute when I could "help" my Dad building stuff and transforming the land into a garden. I was 3 1/2 years old and so proud pushing my little wheelbarrow. Growing up with a father like that gave me so much knowledge, strength and confidence. I am sure your boys will get that too. These kind of memories and experiences will carry them through life.
So true. I'm a girl and my father was so handy with building all sorts of things. I learnt how to mix cement and build walls from helping him and went on to become an architectural technician when I left school and had a career working for architects in London. There were not many females in construction in those days unlike now.
Enjoyed watching you build with your son. It reminds me of when my husband and I built our A-frame cabin when our boys were little. It takes a little longer but it was so much fun having them be part of the experience. Now they are young men with great memories and skills. Thumbs up on your new vlog.
Looking forward to following along on your journey! Love those beautiful fluffy-bum chickens, the handsome rooster and the dogs... this is a young boy's paradise!
This is fascinating Annalise and Dan. I am impressed with your French at the quarry, you are obviously learning as you go. You are being fine examples for your children. I will keep following and watching. I think you need some miniature goats.
Ah! The good life! It is so enjoyable watching the progress of a family whose hard work and determination will surely bring plenty of rewards. Thank you for sharing.
Ok those boys are just so adorable, they will have such a great work ethics! One day soon both will be such big helpers to Dad. Way to go Dan the Gardner. What a lovely family!
I adore the youngest members of your crew. You're so blessed that Dan is handy in many different areas because it makes your dream much more attainable than waiting till you can afford to pay others to do your projects.
I came from Stephanies channel as well! Would love to hear how you ended up in France and a tour of your home and property! Loved the videos you have so far. Great job. Hello from Canada 🇨🇦
Wonderful to see your lovely family living the dream, living in hardship enables you to appreciate every achievement. Awaiting the next vlogs with excitement. :)
Looking forward to your little family channel dan , you are truly a very hard worker , thank you brenda Gibbons for putting this video up I thoroughly enjoyed it 💕 the very best of luck with it dan and family 💕
A very interesting and well done video. I am excited to follow along and see how the construction moves along. Its amazing you are doing it all yourselves. WellDone
Treasure every second you two. They grow up so darn fast. We went through a home reno with our son and he learned so much. It’s a blessing that you two little helpers will have the same experience.
I'm going to love watching the progress of your home. Would love a tour and a background about how you came to live in France. Lovely family and I can only understand how hard it must be to get anything done with 2 little ones running around!
Appreciate you inviting Us into your family life and Restoration of your Farm House. Difficulties with warm water at times brought back a Hurricane survival tip I've used..... large plastic bags( construction sz.,etc.) filled with water, sealed, placed in sun provide warm water when needed. Looking forward to more Restoration and your dear Boys.
So nice to see your gorgeous family, giving it a go with the best of intentions and with grit and hard work, your boys are going to have the best of upbringings, Love and the real foundations of life!
Great to watch another renovation and it's farm this time! Awesome to see your beautiful and lovely family. All the best from the other side of the world!
Well done Dan, you have a delightful family. I am sure you will turn your home into an oasis in no time. I wish you all the best as you begin your TH-cam journey. I am so glad Stephanie alerted us to your channel. 💖

I enjoy Washer you guys and the two little ones remodel your little place have a good day
You guys should be so fulfilled with the life you are creating with your beautiful boys🙋♀️💗
Hi Dan and Annelise. I am now just going way back and watching some old vlogs! So sweet!
The work is manually hard so one needs the tools to speed up the progress. The little ones seem to enjoy working with dad. They are so cute.
That is the best little helper I have ever seen!!!
Oh my gosh your babies are adorable! Thanks for sharing them! I miss my “baby” boy (he went & grew up!). 🥰
Jack is so cute!! Learning to be a builder and farmer already!
Dan you and your wife are such lovely people! I am very impressed with both of your parenting! SO patient. Those boys are very blessed. You are two wonderful humans! I LOVE this vlog! Thank you for sharing your life. Always love your wife and treasure her. She is beautiful and such a gem! Those boys will grow up to be great men....like their father!

That's what I thought.
That's one hell of a project for you both, along with two small boys!!!! I look forward to progress.... 😁

Wow, your kids are certainly lucky to have such lovely parents, so patient and kind - - what a great place to grow up. I'm looking forward to watching your adventures.
I enjoy seeing a counterpoint to chateau life, to watching the development of a more scaled-down property. It’s low key and enjoyable.
What a beautiful home you’re creating for your beautiful family!
You’re really capturing some magic moments you’ll get to enjoy looking back at later on
Hi Dan, great to see you have your own vlog👍🏻😁. You are one hardworking guy‼️ lots of work for you to do and many things to accomplish 😊 I look forward to it all😁👏🏻👏🏻
OMG Dan your family is adorable. Made me have great memories of going to watch the “diggers” with my son. He is 19 now 🥰
So glad your wife found Stephanie and that all kickstarted this for you. All the best to the 4 of you.
Love and Light on your adventures with your lovely family from Ireland 🍀💚🍀

The chickens are glorious. That rooster is the business. I think that your home will be cozy.

Loved watching the difference you have made at Lalande, - as they say, follow your dreams they know the way
nothing like camping while fixing up a dream! think of all the memories.
This is fascinating Annalise and Dan. I am impressed with your French at the quarry, you are obviously learning as you go. You are being fine examples for your children. I will keep following and watching. I think you need some miniature goats.
Love that you are saving an old farm building and making it a family home again. Great job and team effort. Your family is amazing.
It’s so wonderful to see your determination and work to prepare the home for your family. God grant you many blessings 🙏🙏🕊🕊😇😇👍👍❤️❤️☝️☝️
