Comparing your Christmas Tree to those at LaLande is unreasonable. For one thing, most of their decorations are beautiful gifts from generous patrons and viewers. For another, there are no children who live at LaLande. Your home is a beautiful family home with wonderful children who live and play there. Someday, those children will be grown and you'll cherish that disheveled tree and every memory it represents. You're decorating your home, balancing finances and ideas and creativity. In the end, you will be able to look back with pride at all you've accomplished. I love LaLande and everyone there. They are all wonderful people who deserve every ounce of adoration and help and love they get. You and your family are just as awesome and tho it may take a bit longer, your home will become the beautiful place you envision too. Your paths are different, but they both have beautiful destinations. God bless all of you.
So beautifully put! I think Amy should be very proud of all she and her husband have accomplished also. It's hard to take on such humongous places without a small army of servants like they had in the past!
How nice to see LaLand from the perspective of a guest. I remember Stephanie and Philip visiting your chateau. So good that you can all learn from each other.
It's always important to get inspiration from other places. We love visiting different buildings all around the world for inspiration. More videos of these visits to come!
This was really fun, focusing on some of the details at La Lande through your eyes and how they inspire you. Your own journey is so unique and interesting because you have such an old and historic chateau/home, because you're restoring an entire estate to viability and...doing it as new parents! I so admire the two of you.
What nice memories of last Christmas. Both Clement and Juliette were still so little back then! I hope you get to realise some of the inspirations from Lalande in Rosieres.
Hearing you talk about your inspirations and plans, makes me look forward to seeing what you end up doing at your chateau and gardens. You have great taste and ideas. It was lovely to see how much the children have grown and a chateau I see often on UA-cam, from a different and appreciative perspective. It was the same when Stephanie and Philip visited you and showcased your chateau so beautifully. All the best for 2024!
Thank you for cracking open the vault to share last year's Christmas with us! I bet the kiddos were crazy over the hidden door! How much they have grown in a year, too! Merry Christmas too you all!
If you do not mind some advice, the split bath is a lovely, useful idea, my one piece of advice is is to make sure the room with the toilet includes a sink. You can get toilets that have sinks built into the toilet tank for small spaces. Nothing is more wretched than having to leave to go to another room to wash your hands. Plus, the door handle in the toilet room thus becomes absolute rank!
The temptation for children to put wet wipes down the toilet is so great (unless they're meant to be flushed).... sinks can be tiny with very narrow profiles or made for the corners of any room. @@jennifercampbell7698
Amy, that was so much fun! I was laughing along with you over Philip's joke - your laughter is contagious!! Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family!
Sooooo beautiful, Amy, Mark, Juliette & Clement. You are such a lovely family & an inspiration…. Mark’s footwear & sense of humour are equally hilarious!!! xxxxx
My favorite parts are in the garden with Marc and Juliette, advent discovery with Stephanie and Phillip, and the sheep close up and all smiling at Amy the animal whisperer sheepishly. Good stuff, perfect throwback!❤ Happy Christmas & Joyeux Noël ✨🎄✨
Wow! Thank you so much, loved every moment, and i have never seen the sheep, up close, not moving, they are so adorable, however u kept me on the edge of my seat as Aloysius kept creeping nearer and nearer...😂
Magical places, that you both have!! Looking forward to YOUR touches in your wonderful home!! 🥰🥰 Hope you had a beautiful CHRISTmas, and that you have Blessed New Year!!! Susan, Napoleon, Missouri, USA
I am so glad you showed us the sheep, I had no idea how expressive their faces are. I've only seem them on Stephanie's channel running from them when they're needing to be clipped.
"Where's Philip's mummy?" Out of the mouths of babes 😂. Thank you for giving us tours of rooms at La Lande that we only see glimpses of on Chatesu Diaries. And I got such a good laugh listening to you and Philip laughing at the "chess nuts" joke!
Wow not only can you see how much the children have grown but also how much has changed at LaLande too, especially the planting in the courtyard and the walled garden. Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year to you all 🎄 x
I found you! I really enjoyed watching your progress on Chateau DYI and missed you when the show ended. I am delighted to have found you again, and have started to watch you from the beginning. So happy to see you and your family doing well. Hugs, Kory from Washington state, US
I thought the same thing. Philip's mastery of English is quite amazing. Native English speakers take for granted the nuances of the language. They don't realize how funny it sometimes sounds to people who speak ESL. His ability to appreciate puns as quickly as they're spoken suggests to me a considerably large vocabulary. I'd love to know at what age he began learning English. They were clever puns.👍 I rather enjoyed them too.
This was so nice you were able to come to visit Chateau de LaLande! Such fun seeing this vlog and so many things you pointed out brought back memories to me in Stephanie painting the golden borders on the doors and when the curtain holders. Aloysius the sheep (the Black one) is featured in a book about Chateau de LaLande which you would probably love if Stepanie can let you know just how to get one is more are available, Reading it to your children, would be so nice, if you should choose. I would bet they would enjoy it so much and it would be a reminder of your visit for years! Just thought of what you may enjoy, and Stephanie can help direct you in how to get one. So glad you felt better by end of visit, as could hear the cold that you both still had while visiting, Have not been to your site, but will visit as it was very enjoyable Seeing you all at Lalande per this vlog!
What a lovely personal insight into the life at Lalande from a different perspective. Thank you so much Amy and family. It was delightful 🥰😍🤗 merry Christmas 🎄🎀🎆
The sidetable 'built in" for the circular room is not only practical, but harkens back to the enclosed beds that are traditional in Chateaus. What a great idea!
Merry Christmas from Gold Coast, Australia. What a lovely visit you all had last year to Lalande. You're making great progress at Rosiers too. You're all very hard working & talented restoring & renovating Chateaux & the land. Love watching it all thankyou🏰🕍❄️☃️🎄🎶🥰🧡❣️
Delightful tour through your eyes, Amy, and a constructive way to turn "château envy" into inspiration! What's not to like about Philip, Clement?! ❤ Gosh I think the sheep like you and even Aloyishes, the mean one (black with curled horns), Lol. Joyeux Noël, xo
What a lovely video. So nice to see the chateau through your eyes. And to be reminded how the kids have grown this year! Happy Christmas to you all ❤❤❤
Delightful to see last year’s visit to Lalande and realize how your children have grown! Any chance we will see the Christmas crèche extraordinaire? Thanks for sharing your experiences, your ideas and your enthusiasm for all the projects ahead! Have a joyful Christmas!
Thanks for sharing this video, it was really lovely. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas this year and that you will have a New Year filled with joy, peace and love.
When I did my raised bed I used Douglas pine planking and lined them with old cardboard boxes, branches, leaves and general waste and then manure and top soil. The soil level will drop over time as things break down so best to top high in the beginning. The only thing I didn't take into account is the tendency of raspberry plants to find a way out and around and allover the place ! Also I planted a climbing thornless blackberry and it is more Triffid than berry and grows at a phenominal rate!
Happy New Year from your biggest fan in Oklahoma. I'm looking forward to watching you complete the smaller building and whatever else you get up to. You have such a sweet family. Love you.
Love the smiling sheep. They loved your happy demeanor. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Stay safe and take care. Best wishing from sunny South Africa
Love your reaction to seeing Laland. You spoke so sweetly of the decorating and I love how you are inspired. I admit I love how Stephanie has kept the historic and opulent while also feeling homely. So appropriate of a chateau. Not a fan of white and modern in chateaus. If I go to a chateau I want history everywhere. I want the feeling of stepping back in time and I can dream about being a queen. Modern and all white I can stay at a hotel. nothing unique about all white
And yet in America, we associate the "French Provincial" style with white (or a shade of white) and gold-scrolled trim. Also pastel shades of blue and pink. Today they call it 'shabby chic". But truly the fabrics of the Louis XIV period were very bold jewel-toned brocades, or they used needle-point a lot.
@@kindlydude French provincial is a very different design style to Louis XVI. One was used by royalty the other has its roots in farmers and rural France. Shabby Chic is also another design style. It’s about finding the beauty in objects that are a little warn with a few. Cracks and dents with faded colours
I am so glad you decided to post this from last year! It was perfectly timed for Christmas and it was such a warm and lovely visit with Stephanie and Philip. I am privileged to have been able to stay at LaLande twice, once in Chambre de Roger, and it is truly beautiful. You did a really great job of taking us on a tour and highlighting the features of LaLande that inspired you and Marc. One day Château do Rosier will have all of the beautiful decorative details that are at Château de LaLande. I hope to visit you two in the Ardèche one day ❤. Merry Christmas 🎄
As you loved the fabrics Stephanie uses, she is very good at reusing fabrics from around the chateau and Emmaus. She is also good at buying from online auctions and end of line sales. Happy hunting.
What a wonderful video! Double the delight getting to see Lalande at Christmas and the precious people there and then at the same time Marc, Amy, and children from Chateau de Rosieres. So entertaining! Janice from Arkansas USA
Merry Christmas Amy, Marc, Clement, and Juliette. Thank you for showing us Lalande with your eyes. You should be proud of all you both have achieved, your Chateau is stunning and a welcoming place. Amy your laughter is infectious l enjoy watching and listening to you both. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Have a wonderful Christmas day xx
What a charming family you are...I have just subscribed to your channel. Chateau de Lalande ......the inhabitants and friends are something rare in todays world and we all feel a part of their magical family..😊..no matter where we all are across this little blue globe💙. Stephanie Jarvis and her eclectic family are truly sharing the inspiration of 'joie de vivre'❤ Merry Christmas🥰
Your chateau is so unique in that it has such a lovely view of the mountains... perhaps the foothills of the Alps? Anyway, it is beautiful!@@Chroniclesofrosieres
When i get a bigger home, i wanna have a christmas tree just as wide as Stephanies tree was in 2022. I watch her vlogs all the time. Been a follower of her channel for maybe 3 years i think. Not sure. I wanna go to LaLande one day. My god its so beautiful there. Anyways. Your family is beautiful
Amy, I love your sense of humour & your laugh. This was a fabulous tour with great commentary. It’s so nice that you are all friends and can help each other. Thanks for this. Merry Christmas to you & yours.🥰🎄🇨🇦
That WAS me who suggested the bed in the round room! But you don't need to build a side table. There are plenty of antique demi lune tables in the shape of the gap against the wall.
What a wonderful vlog and a blast from the past at LaLande. I remember Stephanie and Phillip visiting your chateau so many moons ago. That’s how I came across watching your channel. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 🎅😍😘
What a lovely tour of such a stunning chateau. The level of restoration and decorating is truly magnificent. Stephanie is definitely one of a kind and a class act. Phillip is the perfect man to be by her side and I love is laugh. Little by little you will bring each room in your chateau to beautiful restorations. Wishing you, Mark, Clement, and Juliet and your loved ones a magical and Merriest of Christmases. ❤️🎄🎁
You can take an old sweater (jumper)or sweatshirt to make the cover for a hot water bottle. I’ve made pillows out of them. My mom would clip the wings of the chickens to keep them from flying over the fence. I hope you have a restful holiday. ❤️ from Oklahoma.
@@kindlydude I was very young when we had the chickens so all I remember was mom holding the bird and a pair of scissors. I did find a UA-cam video on clipping chicken wings after I read your question. I’m not sure if there’s any controversy over clipping wings. I hope you’ve had a wonderful holiday.
Thanks for the hot water bottle cover tip! Reference wing clipping - if done properly or doesn’t hurt them at all, but we don’t do it because then they can’t fly away from predators, and it’s quite wild around ours so there are a LOT of predators!

It's always important to get inspiration from other places. We love visiting different buildings all around the world for inspiration. More videos of these visits to come!
I love it when my favorite chatelaines get together!❤❤
You’re very kind!
Seeing your "flashback" reminds Chateau Diary viewers how much work has been done by the LaLande Garden team.
This was really fun, focusing on some of the details at La Lande through your eyes and how they inspire you. Your own journey is so unique and interesting because you have such an old and historic chateau/home, because you're restoring an entire estate to viability and...doing it as new parents!

As a Lalander, I am thrilled you took the time to post your visit with your family to the Chateau and your lovely visit with Stephanie and Phillip 🎉
I hope that your Christmas 2023 🎄 will be restful and delightful. I love to hear you laugh, Amy!
Thank you Kathy! It's already one of our most restful ever. Have a wonderful Christmas and thanks for being kind! x

That was great! Their textiles and wallpapers are so amazing. Loved the jokes!😂
Glad others appreciated the jokes!
Loved how mean Aloysius wasn't mean to you. All the girls gave you their best smile 😊😊
Wow! That’s unexpected! Looking very much forward to this episode!
I am so glad you showed us the sheep, I had no idea how expressive their faces are. I've only seem them on Stephanie's channel running from them when they're needing to be clipped.

This is unexpected! Looking forward to watching your visit! 🎄💖✨

Dear Amy, Mark, Clement, and Juliete...Merry Christmas from Texas! Thank you so much for sharing a bit of your life, your family and your passions. 🎄
Thank you so much for watching, and sharing your positivity! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Well put. I was thinking the same. This is a great treat today.🎄🇨🇦
What a fun look at a year ago. It's special to get inspiration from such a lovely place.

Love you and Philips jokes glad y’all went

I have used old moth eaten cashmere jumpers to cover hot water bottles, maybe easier for you to do ! xoxoxo
What a delight yourself
I remember wondering why I never saw this visit!!! But it was as worth the wait! Thank you for all you do & Merry Blessed Christmas 🎄 🕊

Thank you!
What a lovely tour of such a stunning chateau. The level of restoration and decorating is truly magnificent. Stephanie is definitely one of a kind and a class act. Phillip is the perfect man to be by her side and I love is laugh. Little by little you will bring each room in your chateau to beautiful restorations. Wishing you, Mark, Clement, and Juliet and your loved ones a magical and Merriest of Christmases. ❤️🎄🎁
Absolutely wonderful!
You can take an old sweater (jumper)or sweatshirt to make the cover for a hot water bottle. I’ve made pillows out of them. My mom would clip the wings of the chickens to keep them from flying over the fence. I hope you have a restful holiday. ❤️ from Oklahoma.
Wouldn't that hurt the chickens, and affect their egg-laying potentially?
LOVE the jumper idea... especially a Christmas jumper would look cute over the hot-water bottle.
@@kindlydude I was very young when we had the chickens so all I remember was mom holding the bird and a pair of scissors. I did find a UA-cam video on clipping chicken wings after I read your question. I’m not sure if there’s any controversy over clipping wings. I hope you’ve had a wonderful holiday.
Thanks for the hot water bottle cover tip! Reference wing clipping - if done properly or doesn’t hurt them at all, but we don’t do it because then they can’t fly away from predators, and it’s quite wild around ours so there are a LOT of predators!
✨You are missed✨
Wondering if Spring is beginning to reveal itself on your side of the mountain.🌱
It started, then it ran away and hid again!!!

Amy, thanks for sharing your visit to La Lande with us. Hope you are all doing well and enjoying the holidays.
Very nice video. I like seeing Chateau de Lalande from a guest's perspective.
