Maria: I didn't sign up for this. I'm indoor staff. 😆
She’s always so funny
I thought I heard her say “I do indoor stuff” 😂
I adore her sense of humor!!
@@alisonsneed3707 haha me too at first 😂😂😂😂
I love seeing Vivienne she’s such a beautiful lady inside and out a true delight
Vivenne’s accent changes every time I watch her. Where is she from? (Lovely, no less)
She’s from Florida in the US, but her and her family have lived in France for decades.
Agree. Vivienne is so lovely and full of LIfe 💚💚💚
Yes, she did a great job all around filming and laying the table both.
Am I the only one who thinks her angelic smile is fake most of the time?! Somethings very off, im sorry, i’ve prolly shold keep it to myself
Cameron is the only one brave enough just to carry old Aloysius ...lol Good job gang!!
Philip is smart just giving a cute grin and no comment.
Clever of Pavlina to work out how to make the chickens eat the lettuce! 🐓🐓🐓
mine won't touch veg on the ground either! will try that tip! Sandi x
I put mine in a wired basket and hang it in front of my lady’s. They even jump to catch every little bit of green.
The best sheep moving ever. Kristy and Cameron, congratulations
Best sheep-herding ever!
Vivian and Simon are so much fun. Nice to see them. ❤
Vivienne found the most gorgeous coat! Good for her! 👍❤️
Cameron gets the brownie points for this year’s sheep herding - how on earth did he manage to get hold of Aloysius long enough to put him on his shoulders???!! Kirsty comes a close second! Chloe and Maria must think ‘How easy was that, don’t know what all the fuss and dread was about’ but Marie has been part of the grand chase of years gone by.🤣🤣
Ah! That's who had the sheep on his shoulder!
Have to applaud Cameron's iconic shepherd move with Aloysius!
Loved this! Stephanie you have such a wonderful team at La Lande! And Vivienne and Simon are so charming. But my favorite was Chloe and Marie dancing! Love the La Lande vibe!
Loved Vivienne's opening in the bed with her tea!
And good for Pavlina for cracking the chicken salad code!
Hi all you lovely La Lande lovers. I just had a fab 3 days there and got my first Emmaus shopping in❤😊
Was it a restful 3 days and did you find any treasures in the Emmaus? Did you enjoy the countryside and the village?
I am so jealous, and green is not my best color!😂❤❤
More dancing to that nice music! Looked so fun. Loved the guest hosts again and great job on shopping. Love seeing the ladies all pulling together…
Ooooooh, how wonderful, @jezabel1960 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Best part, the girls waiting for the sheep to get to the other field and the joy when they managed ! The flock was short of 2 though, made it easier 😂😂
Oh my hat … how hysterically funny was that sheep herding exercise😂😂😂😂
Well done to all who took part !! Durban SA🇿🇦
Such a wonderful community you have there!❤
Vivienne & Simon are wonderful Chatelaines! Love seeing Scotland 🏴 So happy for the vlogs too! ♥️🏰🇫🇷
Vivienne is the best.
Marie and Maria are wonderful
Chloe and Marie are LaLande dancing fairies! How sweet!
GASP A vintage Mrs. BEETON! And Philip , I understand . I dragged my copy across Manhattan home to Brooklyn on a two hour subway ride !!
I really like Vivienne and Simon - What absolutely lovely people.
Oh my gosh… I had to laugh… was expecting Chloe to get stampeded by the sheep,as they headed right for her and her red vest… !
I can’t believe it has been 3 years!
Great job Vivienne and Simon!!!!!! You made Stephanie proud!
Bugger! I sat next to you on flight to Limoges yesterday and I kept thinking ‘I know these people’ but couldn’t remember from where…..probably a good thing for you, I’d have been a pain asking all sorts of questions instead of reading my book!
Oh my goodness! I remember you because I loved your belted dress and thought you looked super elegant
@@TheChateauDiaries you’ve made my day! Super elegant from you is a top compliment 😊. Glad I found these videos, that’s my winter viewing sorted 👍
Stephanie.. ORDER THE TURKEYS.. just a reminder.. lol.
Bwahahahahahahaha
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I LOVE Chloe! I need 6 of her in my life! Lol
Herding the sheep is easy these days after Nick mapped out directions LOL! But kudos to Cameron for actually catching Aloysious. Beautiful scenes from Scotland. Vivienne and Simon were great! They're such fun people. The rest of the gang provided good content so thanks all!
Loved the joy of the girls dancing on the grass
Aww❤❤❤the cute white sheeps face when carried😂😂😂
Tears of laughter..love every second of this treat of "normal " la landed life with such beautiful extras.
Hahaha, thank you so much for all the fun and joy! 😂❤😂
Glad you made it all in time. 💪
The sheep are really getting the hang of it, right? 😂
I compliment Vivienne for not only being a showstopper when needed, but also being without make-up Stephanie style! 🫶
Love the team cam footage. You've got a great bunch there holding the fort.
Love everyone at LaLande plus Vivienne and Simon. The sheep herding/paddock changing is always great fun to watch 🥰
I was watching your past Christmas videos. I love Marie's exquisite talents at creating the wreaths and flowers. She is such an asset to LALANDE. Such a kind, gentle spirit she has.
Vivienne absolute legend! ❤
We all make mistakes Stephanie,,,,wise man to not say anything Phillip 😂
So true, I once missed my flight by 2 hours because I get confused by the 24 hour time schedule..I prefer am/pm 😊
Hilarious! Loved this !
You are all a beautiful antidote to world news! Stephanie, my travel karma used to be famous so you have all my sympathy. I once turned up for a flight that was flying over my head as I stood at check in. Next flight 3 days later!
Bahahahahaha ahahahaha too much! Best sheep herding ever 😁 oh and remember when Michael Potts would drag you fir a walk in the Scottish countryside and now you love it ❤
This was a fun vlog. And i think that i also know what the sheep and Aloisus were thinking😆
That is the best man! Patience personified! ❤
I just love your two stand ins. They are soo delightful!! Stephanie and Phillip you two are soo funny!! I bet all the trips you go on together and even at home you two are just fun to be around!! Chloe is sooo funny. I had to laugh at them sheep herding. Lol!! Chloe you are soo fun to watch. Great episode!!!! Lots of love from Tennessee!!!
Marie filming Nati like she was filming a nature documentary. 😂
The sheep 🐑 are my favorite part. So cute they are. ❤
Vivienne is a sweetheart❤. Thoroughly enjoyed this Vlog. The travelling, shopping, mini cams...pureheart Chloe.
Cameron is the best shepherd 🎉😊
Vivienne & Simon are just so funny 😆 wonderful seeing them xx
Love Vivienne and Simon! Such sweet substitute hosts. And the Lalande team had me laughing and hollering too. They did really well filming and storytelling 💚💚💚💚💚💚
I’m loving the daily vlogs Stephanie, just seeing the day to day things, like Nati sitting by the fountain with Molly 🐕
Chloe has had a complete glow up! Get it girl! Oh yeah! Ya looking wonderful!!! Bombshell!!
I just love these regular shorter vlogs! I find it easier to find a little bit of time 😁
The Kenough hoodie is hilarious!
One cannot say no once a book calls to them. Love the daily videos!
Nice sheepie sheepie! Otherwise the evil drone will get you, and you don't want that to happen. 🤣 You're all stars and Vivian & Simon shined brightest of all. 🥰
Vivian and Simon you did a great job hosting
That was a tonic! Thank you for the video! Have a gala day!
So nice to see Vivienne and Simon!
Wow! What an adventure you and Philip had. You’d need a weeks rest to recover.
Pavelina's statement, "I figured out how to feed the chickens lettuce. I have to stand it up so they think it's growing cuz apparently they only like to attack things that are growing." Lol 🤣
I LOVE the Mrs. Beaton book I don’t have one of!!! Great purchase Philip! As much fun as traveling is (haven’t done much myself for quite some time) coming home is ALWAYS a joy!
Great fun watch...Sandi x
I really enjoyed this format switching sites. Well done!!
Philip’s I am Kenough top! 😆 It’s great!
Great vlogs today and yesterday! Love the dailies so much. Takes me back a few years ago when every time you put out a video we felt like part of the family. Thank you so much for this. Please update us on Percy and I know i am not the only one missing Jerry. How are they and of course your wonderful Mother. Loving you all from South Mississippi, USA.
Forgot to add, Philip, it takes a wise man to know when to keep his lip zipped! Lol. You are wiser than your years.
As usual a total joy to see you all, love from CANET de Mar.
Love to you all at LaLande
How lovely and funny and just beautiful..........
Love Vivianne's coat ! Congratulations on making the flight, who was the driver ? The Highlands of Scotland look wonderful but I'm glad I live in France.
Thanks for the fun videos as always,
Swan
I was looking at that shortbread in Peter Jones yesterday and wondering whether to get some to take to Lalande !
Thank you thank you!! I injured my self Friday installing graphics on a tank truck and have been struggling with a cane...making everything harder....and now just finally resting and watching this...just really cheered me up.
Enjoyed the subs Vivian and Simon. Welcome home
Delightful vlog with all the various people cam shots. That was one of the most efficient transfer of the sheep yet, well done LaLanders! Thanks all🙏❤️
Well done guys well done. Beautiful footage in the beginning. Glad to have you home. 🤟🏻💜🐬😎🇺🇸
My mother use to have a complete Mrs Beetons Household Management. I use to love reading it as a small child. The book got stolen when our house got broken into , along with all my mums silverware. My mum was a silver Smith she use to work for viners and use to buy something for the table each Christmas. Just brought back memories of my late mum x
The ability to remember our dear departeds is such a gift, isn't it?
What a very special group of people! Very enjoyable video:)
Love these blogs, chill time from life in general and always something to laugh about 😂🥰
That lovely lampshade base you chose, is full of woodworm! Lots of holes, but I loved it too! I loved all that was going on in this smalls Borg of a video, thank you all who took part! The sheep herding was epic. Love you all, love and hugs from a wet and windy West Devon, and Jilly and Madge the black rescue greyhound. xxx
Vivian I love your lipstick, worn in the American brocante.
I loved Scotland when I was there. Scots Irish immigrated to NC USA because it reminded them of Scotland. Our highland games festival each year is huge. Beautiful walk in Scotland!
So many little tidbits of Stephanie’s life I have somehow missed or never put together? Goddaughter??
She goes to visit her every year, usually around Christmas. There's an episode from last year. It's old college friend's of she and Nic. As he usually also travels each year to visit. They do the "godparent thing" a bit differently in Europe than here in the US. It's common for each child to have different, even many "godparents," while here it's usually one couple to take all children in event of emergency placement.
@@RockDove5212 never said she couldn’t and I did say it was a tidbit of Stephanie’s life I had perhaps missed in past videos. Just something new I learned about about her! 🤷🏼♀️😵💫
Thank you @hahna77 appreciate the kind response!
@@jf1a8x1 I'm really sorry I didn't mean to upset you. ❤️
@@RockDove5212 thank you..appreciate that..
This was such a fun one. The girls were giving sheperdess realness with their dresses and the kenough pun at the end was perfect
Great video! Loved seeing the temporary chatelaines while staff was away. Keep up the great work, everybody!
The sheep episode was too funny, I was looking for alot more in that herd lol
Love the shot of everyone in the window.
Awesome variety in the footage.
Loved this video 😊 thank you all xx
No reading at the table! Loved the dancing! I was just thinking the other day how I miss Lalanders dancing in the kitchen. Remember that? This is a fun video all around - a very welcome escape from war coverage. Merci beaucoup!
I see the woodland imps were out dancing again 😂😂😂🤩
My best booking error was flying to Colorado and not putting in the correct return date rather having a ticket leaving an hour after I had arrived. Sometimes we are just tired and amazingly silly.
Haha "Quand le chat n´est pas là, les souris dansent..." All in all, nice cams and editing.
Welcome Home!
Chloe (Coco) and Maria are finally total Lalanders. Herding sheep standing at the point place. ❤ Did Chloe get into the Nettles?
Don't worry Stephanie, you are not alone. I sent my son to fetch me at OR Tambo airport instead of Lanseria on a Friday in peak midday traffic 😅.
Love all of this🥰wonderful purchases Vivienne and Simon.
You should have long fence panels to hold to make a corridor for the sheep to,pass but you did well with that sheep herding.
They use the fences going the opposite way to get them out in spring. ❤ Isolating the ram helps a lot. One year, he led them down the road to the right, through another open gate, across the courtyard and back to the original field. ❤
"Do you think we took too much luggage?" LOL!
I’m with Phillip over the Mrs Beatons? What a good copy! Xx
Welcome home! There are several very funny things in this vlog, & I think we all know what they are! The crew waving to the babysitters was great!!! I love that book! ❤❤
It is so much warmer there, than at our area of the Northeast! Cannot believe how fantastically the flower are blooming and you do not need to ware much clothing to stay warm!
I do watch Chateau Love with Vivienne and Simon and they are always fun and such upbeat loving people too.
Stephanie and Philip looked tired at the end of this journey and yet I know it was fun too!
Such fun watching everyone whether working or at leisure moments at lalande!
Not easy to carry Aloysia! But loved seeing the sheep come running home! Glad Chole could join in and Pavlina made a most fantastic. meal!
You all made this vlog very special! TY!!
