Harry climbing up steps and walking on the beach aged (almost) 92 is a role model for us all and an example of why keeping active as we age is important
Nicki and Carlo the worst thing about your videos is that they are only 20 minutes long. I could watch a full 1 hour long episode easily without getting distracted and I have ADHD so that says a lot. Happy New Year to your family as well. Lots of love from Pakistan
I love all your videos but this one had a special touch to it. Your amazing 92 year old dad climbing all those stairs, your new beautiful dining room, taking us to the village, a beach and a craft event for children, cooking up a storm and ending with you celebrating with your friends…it was so lovely. Thinking of Carlo not having his dad this year but instead having his kind wife honouring him through a dish he always made. I have no words…simply heartwarming. Wishing you so much happiness in the coming year. From cold and snowy Canada. 🇨🇦
You guys have just not stopped working since you bought the house..but it has turned out SO SO beautifully..warm and cosy and stylish.Have a wonderful new year and maybe a bit of a well deserved rest!!!❤❤
Love how the dining room has come together- looks so welcoming 🧡 A little wood burner would look so cosy. Always a treat to see Harry - his sense of wonder and curiosity is as strong as ever, he’s awesome. Merry Christmas to all.
I love that sideboard! I'm a furniture artist and I would have snagged that piece in a heartbeat! When you put that carpet down, the paint color on the wall, just "worked" right then!
Nicki having your dad there is probably one of the memories you will be grateful for many years later. He loves it there! Made me very emotional as I lost my dad years ago ❤
Your father reminds me so much of my grandfather. My grandfather always had a camera attached to his hand. He loved to take photos and back in the day he would develop them himself.
Nicki, I'm so glad your Dad came. I look forward to his visits to your new home. I love what you have done with the dining room. You have an eye for decorating. 😄😄😄
Your dining room looks wonderful and I love the cheery color! It will glow in candlelight and in the late afternoon sun that shines through as well. Thanks for the Christmas tour of San Gimignano. I caught a glimpse of the cafe where we ate lunch in the piazza a few years ago. I cherish the painting I did of a waiter there delivering a glass of beer to someone eating under the umbrellas. And my oh my! Sir Harry is looking fabulously fit and healthy. Best wishes to you and your families for a prosperous, happy New Year!
The dining room is looking great and Marie has a very warm and inviting home as well. I’d love to party with one of those incredible drinks and the food looked absolutely delicious! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!🎈
The new dinning room turned out great! I love the sweeping views the room has of the rolling tuscan countryside. The Christmas Art fare was lovely and the tour of San Gimignano with your dad was great. I have never seen San Gimignano so quiet. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Everyone Everywhere
The view from that new dining room is gorgeous! Just a hint. Since your new table is walnut, you can break a fresh nut open and run it over minor scratches. The oil in the nut and the stain will cover minor imperfections. I’m an antique nut and have restored/refinished many pieces. I love your new space! Happy New Year!!!
Yes, black walnut is good for scratches on wooden floors also..or no heels, or shoes in my condo..😂😂😂... Happy 2025 world of sweet N & C gang..❤ Blessings in 2025 y'all..ty for another great year..love your new dinning room.the views are heavenly.❤just stunning..you did awesome on that room. Need a comfy chair to read 📚 while you gaze upon paradise.. Ty for sharing all..I appreciate in my 70s😮.....🎉big hugs❤ciao❤hugs to indie, holly❤❤❤❤❤woof
Your dad is definitely an inspiration to me to get up and walking more in 2025! It's all about movement, they say! He's wonderful! Happy New Year to you all :-)
It's truly inspiring to see how energetic and active your dad still is and enjoying his visit with you and Carlo. I strive to have even a semblance of his energy when I start my travels when I retire. Thank you for sharing another wonderful vlog, Nicki & Carlo. Happy Holidays and here's to a Wonderful New Year to You and Yours!
😁Tuscany is wonderful. Watching the home there come together is so entertaining. It really is a pretty place. Loving the dining room for hosting w/a very lovely view! Glad your dad was able to be there for Christmas. So much to do and so many great places in that area to see! Thank you for taking us on your walks and outings! See you weds and next Sunday! 😊
art makes such a difference in a room! and the credenza(?) looks great in the spot with the painting above it. you both have such a great *can do will do* attitude - well done! your dad gets around incredibly for 92 - my goodness! another really beautiful Sunday video - molto grazie!
I love being on the beach in the spring, autumn, and winter. I find it too hot in summer. I love it when the waves are crashing onto the shore and the spray is being blown around by the wind, the best sights and sounds of being on the beach❤❤❤Happy New Year!🎉🎉
Hi Nicki and Carlo, great video as usual I could watch the two of you for hours! Love what you’ve done to the dining room and it was lovely to see your gorgeous dad! he is so adorable! Happy and a healthy New Year to you all, much love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That was fun Niki. What a beautiful Christmas table. When I watch your videos I fall into them unaware of my surroundings until the unfortunate end. I’m thinking which dish I would choose and what recipes I will make at another time. Just always enjoy your content. May the New Year bring you all health, prosperity and peace. Thank you once again for taking me to Italy.
Such a lovely vlog Nicki and Carlo. The dining room is looking wonderful. Love the colour and all the touches. Your Dad is looking so well. Lovely to see him again.
Oh that looked so good Nicki😋!! Wishing you, Carlo, Skye, your Dad, Hollie, Indie and all your family and friends a Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year❤xx
I really like the dining room. It’s coming along nicely. The community holiday celebration looked like a great time was had by all. I love that your dad is visiting and he gets along really well. Going up and down stairs with relative ease. Wow, the Christmas dinner at your Marie’s looked really festive and lovely. Happy holidays . Looking forward to the next video.
Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year! What a Holiday treat. This video contains so many features I enjoy, family, food, traditions and beautiful scenery! Your dad at 92 enjoying it was heartwarming.
Just shows you dont need to spend a fortune to make a room look attractive.A good eye for a bargain and for hidden potential and some basic skills is all you need!Well done.Your dads enthusiasm is impressive.Things you and Carlo probably take for granted are all new for him😊
LOL! at The Grinch walking into frame. Happy! New year to all. That room with the rug, the final look is brilliant! I don't have space rugs in my house, because all they are good for is tripping people over, as it happened to you. I was like yeap! there it is LOL! It is gorgeous though and pulls the room together very well.
Nikki thank you for sharing San Gimignano with us. I’ve been there twice, but never at Christmastime. What a beautiful village. Your dining room is looking spectacular. I hope you enjoy the holiday season!
Dear Nicki & Carlo: Regarding your new dining room in Tuscany, perhaps no curtains (wouldn't want to cover that outdoor scenery and view). Fairylights in that room might create more night time ambiance too! Only one or two large plants would finish that room. Remember, less is more. You're doing a great job designing that room. Sincerely, Canadian Colleen
Saluti dalla Grecia!🥰💖💖 mi piace il mix & match decorazione, bellisimo il giardino e la vista dalle finestre e pazzesca, natulamente tutta l'Italia e belissima pero la Toscana è una delle regioni più belle di tutto il mondo, siete tutta la famigia molto simpatici e anche i vostri amici e vi auguro che la stagione delle feste riempia la vostra casa di gioia, il vostro cuore di amore e la vostra vita di risate. Un abbraccio e buon proseguimento! 🌻💛🌻💛🌻💛🌻
Buon Natale a te, Carlos e familia! I can't tell you just how much my husband and I enjoy your videos! I feel like I'm right there with you. Love what you've done with that room! You both compliment each other with work and design... it's how we roll, too. Silly me talking to the screen saying "no no that dresser needs to go under the picture!" lol!!!! And then you put it there, and I'm like yes! and smiling like you actually heeded my advice. Good Lord I need a life, lol. Anyway ... you guys are so awesome. Love you and Happy New Year from Canada! 🎉 PS Love how you celebrated Christmas ... nice and easy does it ... I'm not complaining but I'm from an Italian family and it's go go go, visit visit visit and visitors. Love it, but man, it can get tiring. 😂
The beauty of your home matches the intense hurt you felt when it looked like the deal was going to fall through. Happy to see you so happy and bringing out the beauty of your home and land!
Nicki, I couldn’t believe when you said your father will be 92 next week. Absolutely incredible! How blessed he and you are ❤ best wishes to everyone in the new year!
Santa and his elves have nothing on you! Everything, from the charming reindeer crafts to the transformation into a dining room with a spectacular view is delightful! All the best to you in the New Year! 🍾🥂🎇🫒
I Love the new transformation great ideal love the paintings and great choice of the color shade it embellish everything beautiful in theses festivities !!!....🧡❤
Nicki and Carlo Happy New Year and thank you for your wonderful entertainment and work. The dining room looks very good, warm and inviting. The only suggestion I would make is to replace the ocean picture above the sideboard with a mirror. It would reflect some of the outside scenery which is very pretty.
Dad is looking fantastico🤗, his smile is endearing as he takes photos of you Nicki. You and Carlo work in such harmonious, creative synergy. Tuscan villa is becoming more and more beautiful each episode. The colors in dinning room are lovely, as are all the pieces of furniture. My eye was drawn to the still life image with the vase, seeing that above the credenza. Holly-Po in the sand is more scrumptious then ever. LOVED seeing Maria and Lorenzo's home, especially the Xmas table scape. Orange with pierced cloves brings me back to my Momma and the way she celebrated the season. Joyous wishes for a healthy abundant, New Year to your family, and to all your UTube followers. 🙋♀🎄🎊✨
The dinning room turned out beautifully. I've fallen in love with Tuscany myself. All of Italy is beautiful. If I could, I would move there. Not to be a downer here, but I'm fed up with the United States. On a more positive note, Happy New Year to you and yours! May you all be richly blessed with love, laugher and fantastic friends in 2025.
Pa is 92!! Happy birthday to him. I can imagine watching you and Carlo film until that age. I doubt we would ever see you two sit down a full episode. You’re all so full of vibrant light! Love you all. ❤
This is the first video that has made me very, very hungry. Literally, my mouth was watering. I love seeing your Dad Nicki ... makes me miss mine and my Mum. You are very fortunate to have your Dad and many family and friends around you at Christmas. Bless you all! ♥️☘️
@@zuzanatauvinkl5195 Oh no, those are just personal videos. I did try my hand with video editing software to try to make something a bit more polished and gained a new respect for just how difficult and time consuming it is
Thank you so much Nicki and Carlo for sharing these lovely slice of life videos with us. I'm an expat living far from family and didn't fly home for the holidays this year, so seeing your togetherness and quality time with loved ones gives me a bit of warmth as well. Many blessings for the New Year!
Love the dining room, looks great! Glad your Dad is there, he amazes me! San Gimignano is one of my favorite towns in Tuscany!! Looked way different than it did last September, haha! But a gorgeous place. Merry Christmas 🎄 to you, Carlo and Skye! 🎅🏻
Wow, that Christmas spread looked sooooo yummy! You are all so blessed having so many wonderful friends and family. Annnnnnd I love your new dining area. You both did such a wonderful job. I hope everyone had a beautiful Christmas. And may everyone have a new year filled with joy, good health, prosperity, peace of mind, and lots of fun adventures.
How wonderful! Don't worry at all about chairs matching the table. The magic of your home in Tuscany is that it looks like it was furnished over time, and lived in for years. And how gorgeous you are (11:49 in the video)!! Wow. You and Carlo are so very blessed. I know you know! Thank you so much for taking time to share with us. Your dad is adorable! Best ever, and Happy New Year to all! XO
Seeing your dad climb those stairs reminded me of my father who was mid 80’s doing the same. It was a story he told anyone who would listen 😂. Wishing you and yours all the best for the festive season.
Your veranda transformation into a dining room is lovely! I'm sure you'll enjoy many festive dinners there with family and friends in the years to come. Also that was fun how Tuscany celebrates its Christmas with you and other volunteers helping the children make decorations, having their photo taken with Santa, etc. Your father seems really enchanted with the sights of Tuscany. Do you think he'll ever pull up stakes and move there? Wishing you all Happy Holidays and New Year! ☃🎄🎇🧨🎉
Not sure why this video made me want to cry..anything about Christmas and Dads. Your Christmas lunch and table looked amazing. Hope you had a wonderful time with your Dad and family.. HNY Nicky have a wonderful year 🎉
Harry climbing up steps and walking on the beach aged (almost) 92 is a role model for us all and an example of why keeping active as we age is important
Absolutely agree! As well as he still has his photographers eye in, taking lots of holiday pics. :)
for sure. if you don't use it, you lose it.
92? 😳
Hugs for Carlo, without his dad this Christmas
Nicki and Carlo the worst thing about your videos is that they are only 20 minutes long. I could watch a full 1 hour long episode easily without getting distracted and I have ADHD so that says a lot. Happy New Year to your family as well. Lots of love from Pakistan
What a lovely! comment.
Totally agree!
I’m with you! Was hoping for a little extra. Missing Wed. show 😢
Completely agree, or 2 more videos a week!!! 😊
Thank goodness since they’re not the only ones I watch!
I thought it was such a lovely thing to do to make Carlo’s dad’s recipe for Christmas ❤
I love all your videos but this one had a special touch to it. Your amazing 92 year old dad climbing all those stairs, your new beautiful dining room, taking us to the village, a beach and a craft event for children, cooking up a storm and ending with you celebrating with your friends…it was so lovely.

You guys have just not stopped working since you bought the house..but it has turned out SO SO beautifully..warm and cosy and stylish.Have a wonderful new year and maybe a bit of a well deserved rest!!!❤❤
I agree!
Your dad is truly an inspiration ..... doing all that walking and hiking with a heavy knapsack on his back!
Aw, the dining room is lovely and cosy. That view is unreal too. That table of food and drinks at the end was mouth watering!
The view looks like a panoramic painting!
Love how the dining room has come together- looks so welcoming 🧡 A little wood burner would look so cosy. Always a treat to see Harry - his sense of wonder and curiosity is as strong as ever, he’s awesome. Merry Christmas to all.
You could install an electric fireplace for the dining room. It would make it more cozy.
Or a standing lamp for some light effect at night.
How wonderful to have your DAD for the holidays. We all luv to spend time with him via video. He. Is awesome!! ☮️🌸💟🌻🌻💗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
I love that sideboard! I'm a furniture artist and I would have snagged that piece in a heartbeat! When you put that carpet down, the paint color on the wall, just "worked" right then!
Congrats on your dining room. Your sense of colour and what works is amazing.❤
Worked out fabulously... I also totally agree that art on the walls complete a room... lovely...
❤❤❤❤love your dinning room really good hostess trolley would be useful but have a wonderful Christmas and new year 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow, a dinning room, l love it!!. It's the outpost perfect place . The view is to die for!❤.
How much did that room glow when the sun was setting?! 😮
It's great seeing your Dad there with all of you.
Nicki having your dad there is probably one of the memories you will be grateful for many years later. He loves it there! Made me very emotional as I lost my dad years ago ❤

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!🎈
Wow! The dining room has gone from a rustic porch to an elegant dining room. Beautiful! ❤

Does it have to be a black walnut? I did that and it didn’t work very well
@ black walnuts is what I have used.
You’re so smart! Great idea.
Yes, black walnut is good for scratches on wooden floors also..or no heels, or shoes in my condo..😂😂😂...
Happy 2025 world of sweet N & C gang..❤
Blessings in 2025 y'all..ty for another great year..love your new dinning room.the views are heavenly.❤just stunning..you did awesome on that room.

Thumbs up on the Dining Room. Think it might need a small pot belly stove for heat in the winter 🔥
@@samanthab1923 - Or something electric. Less mess.
Agree !
Holly had a grand beach day. Good food. Gorgeous sunsets🤗🤗💗
I love being on the beach in the spring, autumn, and winter. I find it too hot in summer. I love it when the waves are crashing onto the shore and the spray is being blown around by the wind, the best sights and sounds of being on the beach❤❤❤Happy New Year!🎉🎉
Always nice to see your dad. He's looking good. Your dinning room is beautiful. Happy upcoming New Year .
I LOVE how you let your dogs be dogs! Happy New Year and all good wishes. 🎉❤ 🐕 xxx
1. Thank you for holidays week videos
2. Thanks for not cutting out trips or falls. We are all just like that 😂😂
My mother in law turned 91 on the 28th of December. Happy birthday to your dad. And Merry Christmas!!!
I turned 85 Dec 17 from USA.
Luv luv these relaxing memories

Looks great.
Dining Room looks lovely!!
Yes it is lovely. Does it need a radiator though?

I guess he’s part of Christmas now. Every place that had Santa arriving near me had the usual Elves & Mrs Claus but there’s the Grinch!
@@samanthab1923 IKR! LOL!
Incredible. Christmas. Lunch. Those drinks looked soo good!! Blessings to each of you in the new year🌲🌲😇😇☀️🌹🌹💟💗☮️🔮🌻🌼🦋🦋🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️🌲🌲
Lorenzo is an artist with cocktails. Remember those chocolate espresso martinis at Celine’s? Yum
Always a pleasure seeing you dad Nicki. When you mentioned Carlo' dad, I got a bit emotional. RIP. you are so missed. God bless!
Nikki thank you for sharing San Gimignano with us. I’ve been there twice, but never at Christmastime. What a beautiful village. Your dining room is looking spectacular. I hope you enjoy the holiday season!

The beauty of your home matches the intense hurt you felt when it looked like the deal was going to fall through. Happy to see you so happy and bringing out the beauty of your home and land!
Very nice ambience😊. Ur father Is cool
Nicki, I couldn’t believe when you said your father will be 92 next week. Absolutely incredible! How blessed he and you are ❤ best wishes to everyone in the new year!
I love how the dining room turned out ❤ Well done 🎉 And your dad is amazing for his age 🌸🩵
How beautiful that your Dad can visit now , precious memory making ❤ I find the rough ocean invigorating.
Beach. Was. Absolutely. Gorgeous. That can be a new tradition. Luv it😇🌲☀️⭐️🌹☮️☮️💟🌸🔮🌼🌼💗♥️🌻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Haven’t seen waves that rough in a while
Santa and his elves have nothing on you! Everything, from the charming reindeer crafts to the transformation into a dining room with a spectacular view is delightful!

Love the dining room, looks great! Glad your Dad is there, he amazes me! San Gimignano is one of my favorite towns in Tuscany!! Looked way different than it did last September, haha! But a gorgeous place. Merry Christmas 🎄 to you, Carlo and Skye! 🎅🏻
Yum the food looked delicious, those crostinis and the cocktails. Yum ❤
Your Dad would have so many more wonderful places for his daily walks if he moved there... Happy new year to all. Your videos are such a treat ♥
Love the way you did the lasagna with crepes.
The food looked delicious on the table and those drinks Lorenzo made!
So pretty💙
Cannelloni, though, not lasagna. 😉
Oops
Wow, that Christmas spread looked sooooo yummy! You are all so blessed having so many wonderful friends and family. Annnnnnd I love your new dining area. You both did such a wonderful job. I hope everyone had a beautiful Christmas. And may everyone have a new year filled with joy, good health, prosperity, peace of mind, and lots of fun adventures.
Wonderful cooking lesson! Beautifully set table! 🌺
Happy New Year and Thank You for the all the great videos!! ☀️
Your dining room is my favourite room in your home.
Nicki your dad is a inspiration!
It looked wonderful !
And yes , this was the best place for the cabinet .
I hope you had a great family Christmas , see you next year 🥰
I wait for that view every time. So beautiful. The dining room is already lovely. Happy New Year!
The dinning table and chairs looks great.so does the food.merry Christmas to you and your 🎄family.
How wonderful! Don't worry at all about chairs matching the table. The magic of your home in Tuscany is that it looks like it was furnished over time, and lived in for years. And how gorgeous you are (11:49 in the video)!! Wow. You and Carlo are so very blessed. I know you know! Thank you so much for taking time to share with us. Your dad is adorable! Best ever, and Happy New Year to all! XO
Merry Christmas to you both!!!
Merry Christmas! I love seeing how you celebrate, and of course, I love seeing your dad.
Looks gorgeous. The colour on the walls just glows. Lovely cosy room🤗❤️
Seeing your dad climb those stairs reminded me of my father who was mid 80’s doing the same. It was a story he told anyone who would listen 😂. Wishing you and yours all the best for the festive season.
The addition of curtains in the new dining room will look lovely
Maybe just swags?
Your veranda transformation into a dining room is lovely! I'm sure you'll enjoy many festive dinners there with family and friends in the years to come. Also that was fun how Tuscany celebrates its Christmas with you and other volunteers helping the children make decorations, having their photo taken with Santa, etc. Your father seems really enchanted with the sights of Tuscany. Do you think he'll ever pull up stakes and move there? Wishing you all Happy Holidays and New Year! ☃🎄🎇🧨🎉
Blinds would be great on the windows!
Nooooooo. Takes away from all that beauty outside
Not sure why this video made me want to cry..anything about Christmas and Dads. Your Christmas lunch and table looked amazing. Hope you had a wonderful time with your Dad and family.. HNY Nicky have a wonderful year 🎉
