Some day, when we’re long gone and Dan and Annalise’s boys are old, they’ll be able to have these vlogs to remember what fun times they had at the Chateau when they were wittle!
I doubt it. Technology will have moved on and nobody will have a clue how to access it. Smart phones will be old hat replaced by some sort of nuclear contraption. Most laptops don't even have a disk drive anymore. Enjoy while you can. 😀
@@evmcelroy just realistic, technology always keeps changing. I would love the boys could have the ability to watch these precious videos, but the chance of it happening is very slim.
@@elisabethhopson5639it’s true. My vhs tapes of my kids and parents all faded away to blank. A few words here or there can be heard but they’re not repairable.
@ Stephanie Jarvis we use to have Easter egg hunts for the kids ( plastic eggs had $ in them too) 25 years later my sister who now owns my grandmother’s house ) cut a tree down and inside the trunk a squirrel had taken a old plastic egg and stuck in the trunk inside was still $1. Was amazing to find
The second animal you collected Stephanie was an Australian Bilby. In 1991 Nicholas Newland from the Foundation for Rabbit-Free Australia developed the idea of Easter Bilby to raise awareness about the environmental damage that feral rabits cause, he hoped to replace the Easter Bunny with true native wildlife. Of course it just wouldn't be Easter without an Easter Bunny.
The napkins came out brilliantly ! Actually, I just delight at the look of the dining room everytime I see it, the chairs and decor look so good. The table setting as usual was beautiful.
Steph, just letting you know, that is not actually a wallaby, it is a Bilby. Easter Bilbies are Australia’s alternative to the bunny. 😊🇦🇺Happy Easter! xx
It’s a Bilby not wallaby. Still native to Australia and the purchase of easter Bilbys helps with preservation efforts to keep our Bilby populations strong. Happy Easter from Australia
The Napkins stole the show as well as the lovely different salt and pepper pots, the quiches and the hot cross buns, well done Marie and Sabena's cheese dip wins hands down for art work and I laughed just as hard as you two. What a beautiful Easter. Well Done Stephanie and company.
Yes, it is spirea! You're better with flower names than you give yourself credit for! The little white flowers in English are Wood Anemones.That "cheese person" on the side table is absolutely hilarious!
Love the Easter egg hunt in the woods 😊 Jack & Thomas having such fun, Marie & Stephanie too 😁 I believe those little white flowers Marie found are wood anemones, so pretty 🥰
It's 79 degrees in Kentucky. Great for the Easter egg hunt. But if you are sitting in the house watching The Chateau Diaries, and you forgot to open windows last night and you don't want to turn on the air conditioning yet, it's kinda stuffy
OMG! Happy Easter Stephanie, Phillip, and LaLande. I was lucky enough to be one of your guests this summer, and it warms my (and my mothers) heart to see my childhood Easter tablecloth on your table. It is the perfect place for this happy memory to live, at beautiful and happy lalande. Thank you for ALL that you do to bring beauty and joy to the world.
Marie …you asked what the white woodland flowers were in English…well they’re called wood anemones. I laughed when Stephanie and Marie reunited at the end of the hunt and Stephanie said she had been eating her eggs and Marie asked her if she still had room for lunch and almost before she finished asking…Stephanie nodded gleefully and for hot cross buns too. I always find I’m smiling broadly when I watch and I always go back and watch again in case I missed any nuance. Happy Easter 🐣
the little prestons are growing up so fast! annalise and dan are doing well with the co-parenting. glad they both are staying friends with all of the lalanders. gorgeous table philip and i love those salt and pepper shakers. lovely easter for all the hunt, the food, the napkins!!
The most beautiful garden is your" friendship" garden. What a wonderful collection of old and new friends, young and old...all treasures! You are all blessings to each other!
Lucky you, getting to eat all those chocolate goodies! Here, A squirrel managed to follow me and collect the 28 chocolate eggs hidden in our backyard. He didn’t overlook any. So sad for the kids, but we finally had a good laugh about it. Hope the squirrel got diabeties.😂
My Easter is complete with another annual Easter egg hunt. So beautiful with all the flowers. What a delicious looking brunch. Marie, those hot cross buns and quiches looked delicious. Love the table setting and napkins. The little lads were so happy. Made my day! Love and Happy Easter to you all.❤
Marie's Hot-Cross-Buns looked scrumptious!!! The woods around the stream looked amazing with all of the moss and wild flowers, as well as the white flowers behind the Chapel, what a Treat for Easter! Thanks for sharing the sights and sounds of the birds! Wonderful Easter Day with friends and Annalise's little ones!
I so love the grounds and forest at La Lande, its so beautiful. The river, the bird song and the tress and spring flowers. It really is beautiful and soothing. Loved Marie's hot cross buns, you really are turning into a skilled cook now Marie, well done. And a lovely cute table with the napkins.
Thank you for sharing all the Easter fun. Sadly I was alone and had to put my 12yr old Labrador to sleep on the 5th March and am still in the depths of grief however your vlogs has made me smile and inspired me to look for some joy again in the world. The flowers,friendship and fun you always bring into my life is so appreciated Steph I fear you'll never really know the difference you make in my life. I adore the way you view life such enthusiasm and appreciation 💕 I will at some point today make an effort to have a little walk and be thankful for all I have ,although my heart is broken with the loss of our dear Golden Labrador: Shelby Anne Louise Brown the love of my life she would have loved to play with Lancelot amongst the beautiful white flowers of Lalande. Happy Easter ❤
The Easter egg hunt was lots of fun. Great looking hot cross buns. The quiches turned out to look delicious. As usual the table was fabulous and those napkins with the bunnies on were stunning. Happy Easter everyone. ❤️ Anna
When will your kitchen receive the overhaul update it deserves? You all spend a good percentage of every vlog in this room ... we all love a kitchen setting where you gather and commune and check on each other. Such a happy place to congregate so PLEASE get on with a proper kitchen ... one for your "family" that works for you B&B as well. Or do you need 2 separate kitchens?
Because of the historic nature of the chateau, I doubt they would get permission to extend the kitchen ....but that would be ideal to make it bigger and have a proper breakfast room for their guests as well as family ...especially if they could have a big picture window that looked out over the (future) lake and the chapel.
It’s so beautiful in the woods and even better finding a glorious chocolate egg yum! 😋 the table is amazing so pretty, the hot cross buns Marie made are delectable, terrific serviettes embroided by yourself with a little help from Dan’s cute boys. Glorious Easter celebration
Did we just saw Illusive Nick for the first time ever? Thank you for sharing this wonderful day, specially lonely viewer can feel as if they belong. 😌 Beautiful
A charming episode of country life, of peace and happiness . The chocolate hunt in the Springtime woods was so idyllic, 😁Phillips bunny ears and the gorgeous Easter table 😍. Happy Easter 🐨🐰
Every Easter so far, you seem to have been blessed with wonderful weather. I do miss Michael Potts' presence, he always lends such an air of fun and energy in along with the children on the hunt for Easter goodies. The meal and the table setting after all that chocolate were a healthy and visual delight and I don't doubt everyone there went to bed happy, content and well fed.
Wonderful vlog!! I imagine Lalande is just a magical playground for Annelise' s boys🪻🚜🐰 . Marie you are a wizard with food and flowers. Love the napkins stephanie
Lancelot reminds me so much of my wee doggo. He’s a Scottie/chihuahua/doxxie mix. He’s much larger at 15 lbs than Lancelot but their personalities are so alike. George does not like other dogs, children, or strange adults so he could never be a chateau dog… but around those he knows, he’s so much like Lancelot. 😂
Marie, the Norwegian lady she is a fabulous cook. I love Norway Norway, is one of the best countries in the world and this Easter show I absolutely from my heart loved it tremendously thank you Stephanie for allowing us to people who watch your show to be able to see what you do it is so magnificent thank you thank you thank you and happy Easter.
❤ My daughter commented that I may be obsessed with your channel when she looked over at my screen...I said "so". I'm happy to be a Chateau Dairies fan. Stephanie, I love your nature, the way you make everyone feel special and how quick your mind works. I'm sure I speak for many when I say, we've learned from you, laughed with you, and care for you and yours, and its because of you. While other channels try their best (and they are good) and even try to emulate you, there is only one Chateau Dairies. Thank you for all your hard work making these vlogs and sharing with the world. ❤
...and maybe one day there will even be a 'Chateau Dairy' as well!! 😉 But I get your point ...Stephanie is the 'star' of this show in that her glow shines on all the others bringing each individual into a happy-whole that is a joy to watch!!
Thomas has a Bilby native Australian animal that is under threat and is 🎉🎉now being used often in place of a rabbit to bring their plight to the attention of others. Great to see they are now in France. Happy Easter all🎉
It is amusing at the end of the video when Stephanie says she is trying have a nap, with Lancelot being like a little mole under the covers..I have fibromyalgia and therefore need frequent power naps and I have my very own mole who gets under my covers, her name is Cleo and she is just as adorable and daft as Lancelot.
The Forest in Springtime is always a treat, we will just have to wait for bluebells. Wonderful morning and beautiful food and table. What fun with the boys!
