The Meeting of Philip! I can’t believe it was caught on film 🥰 I’m currently quarantined and catching up on Unwrapped episodes I never had the chance to see. This absolutely tickled me. How sweet!
Marlene Sistrunk best to contact Dan and Annalise directly. They can give you info on how to send to them. Then they won’t get stuck in the backlog at Lalande. Also that’s the advice they were giving on their channel Escape to Rural France. Also same name on FB.
I’m glad people liked the gifts for the boys. at the time, I only had the address at Lalande. But Erin is right, you can contact Dan and Annalise for their address now. Those boys are precious and a joy to watch!
Steph, do you remember this day when you met Philips for the very first day ❤🎉😊 May you live together many, many, many years as husband wife with your kids ❤🎉
💜Gina: 👑Major Princess Party❣How incredibly kind & generous of you. 🐴They'll be ready for every fabulous occasion, including 🏇Ascot and the 🏇Kentucky Derby (if they're still happening in C19 lockdown⚕). You are a true💐artisan. 💎Each parcel was such a marvelous example of feminine fashion delight. Can't wait to see the ⚜Ladies of Lalande all dressed up in your finest workmanship. Just 🎉imagining🎉 all the future festivities where these items will be cherished & enjoyed. 🕊 May God bless you as richly as you have blessed us all! ☮💛🌼
The sleeves on "Peacock Pixie" have thumbholes which you can put your thumbs through which allows you to text but keep your hands warm in colder weather. Otherwise, just as you had it on, push the sleeves up. Be sure to tighten up the lacing in the back to show off your trim figure :)
Ellen - what a gift and vision but to recycle in such an artistic way...it's inspiring as I have a brand new sewing machine (that I'm afraid of but will use it lol)
@@yknowgirl actually after years of designing and making wedding gowns and theatrical costumes, I am having more fun making colorful hooded sweater coats. You can see my works of wearable art at kaleidoscopewear.com, which is still a bit under construction, or my facebook page of the same name. I'd be happy to make something for you too!
Marie had to buy her own very nice napkins for fancy dinners because Mummy has taken or squirreled them away because she wants them to be used "properly" and not be ruined...you know, "keep them in a safe place"...hahaa!
Mummy's not like "princess" Stephanie, she came from a poor family. I feel sorry for Isabel: she got stuck in the chateau with all those strange people and wearing a mask even when it's hot. She could have been in her beachfront beautiful much comfortable house in South Africa with Percy instead...
Thanks for letting Dan open the gifts I sent on the video. I enjoyed seeing that you all thought they were cute! I only had your address at the time to send them but now have theirs. And of course I put them in care of Isabelle! Their relationship is SO special.
You all are doing an excellent job at learning the abbreviations of the states here in the USA!!! I personally am from PA / Pennsylvania. Sometimes, even after 60 years, I still need to think about one!! Just to let you know IA is Iowa our corn state. IN would be Indiana.
Stephanie! You have brought together a collective of generous and caring humans and it’s a delight to watch every moment of the life you have created, with all the lovely characters who have been drawn to your energy! Thanks :)
I love watching Stephanie’s reaction whenever she opens a box/gifts. Like a kid opening presents on Christmas morning. Big or small gift is so appreciated. ❤️❤️❤️
When I see the wonderful handmade gifts I realize just how much untapped and hopefully not underused talent there is out in the world, those totes and the fabric dress would not look out of place in Liberty's of London, love to all. Only 95 days to........better get the sprouts on.
Yes, too true. ⚜LaLanders are awesome. The pool of creativity & talent out there is rather💣mind-blowing💥. 🥂Cheers to all those who focus on adding a touch of 💐beauty & 💙love in this great big world🌎. 🕊God bless you! ☮💛🌼
The note must have been left out somehow. But there should be an email from a misslauren88 that I sent because the space the website provided for the note was not enough.
Omg first time of seeing lovely kat and your future Prince charming Philip, who would have guessed that you to would fall in love ❤️ you are the perfect couple , so much in common ❤️
Im rewatching the old vlogs and this one is obviously a big favourite as its Philip’s first arrival at LaLande, such a lovely welcoming smile he has, I think I saw afew fireworks go off as Stephanie and Philip locked eye’s for the very first time, and I remember thinking what a lovely couple they would make, Im so happy for them both now🏰🥂😍🥰⚜️♥️🦔👍🏼
What a very lovely kind lady Gina, her gifts are stunning, Does she have a website please? I would love to buy some tiaras their beautiful How kind of her 💖
I believe this Cadeaux is one of the most fascinating I have ever seen in my life ! Everything was so marvelous...To me original. I think Selmar could wear the Peacock brooch very well, when in his dress clothes. ...or "to pimp up your terrace"...hahaa!! Loved the beetles. So, so sweet. And Steph imitating her fussy Mummy's French accent @39:13..cracked me up.
I love watching these gift unveiling episodes. It thrills me that so many people around the world love and appreciate you as we do. You all are a gift to us.
Stephanies reaction to the calamity cups.... PRICELESS!
4 роки тому+13
I am not half English and half French I am half Italian then the other half is Mongolian polish Hungarian , German Irish , but Miss Isabelle is just like my Mama and I think she is wonderful ...I adore her like I adore my Mama!!!
Am I the only one who sometimes closes my eyes for a moment during the unwrapping and just listens to all the oooo’s and ahhhh’s and wow’s and giggles and laughter? The soundtrack of joy, for sure, and what a gift for all our ears🤗
Salmar will love the chilly towel. Just dampen it and when you are burning hot just whirl it around in the air a couple times and it gets freezing cold to put over your face, head or neck. When you are working hard in summer it will be invaluable.
The fabrics are gorgeous and the box of hats, headbands and jewelry are going to be such fun for all the women of La Lande. The dress is adorable and cleverly made. It's overwhelming how much comes and the thoughtfulness of each gift. You are all deserving, for giving so much fun and joy to all of us who are following your vlogs.
I love the things for Dans kids. And would love a link to order a sweater that beautiful!!! I think the toile would make a beautiful lining for a vest or something like that
I LOVE EVERY SINGLE THING you received today! I can't choose which gift was my favourite. I mean EVERYTHING was amazingly gorgeous and stunning! Just wow! WOW! what a day indeed!
I love those mugs,because that is my saying, it drives my brother crazy. So many generous people out there sending you such beautiful gifts. I love your channels and everyone around you.🥰
My 93 year old Grandma thought I was her little sister; she would reminisce with me about all the trouble we got into when we were girls (in the 1920's) sneaking out of the house and catching the train to Birmingham to meet boys! Stella was always very stern with us as children, so to see her giggle and be happy in those last years was wonderful to see. My partner's mother fears losing reality in her old age but we have assured her that, if it does happen, we will keep the house decorated for a birthday party so that she will always believe it's her birthday!
I love love Isabel and Dan’s friendship. You should make whomever is the most negative each day wear the positivity bracelet for the next day. Award it over dinner. Make a game of it
Darling 🐩Annalise was so brilliant to connect with 🗝Chatelaine 🌻Stephanie🌻 over her partner's 🌱garden expertise & skills❣ He really fits in this enchanted world🌐. 💪Dan-the-man has proven himself quite capable & willing to do the heavy lifting around the grounds. He truly is an amazing & gentle man. The adorable 👑Mummy could be a bit of despot about her kitchen garden (& the laundry😁), but now she can relax her guard knowing Dan (& Nati organising the B&B to run smoothly) has her back👍. 🤔Sounds like it would be a hilarious game. It could be another team building exercise as it coaxes someone out of a mood too. Doesn't appear as if there is another Eeyore or Debbie Downer amongst the lot, but someone might get frustrated or annoyed if a project doesn't go quite as smoothly as they hoped. Although 💐Lady Isabel did make a☄wish☄over it, so that might change the dynamic. We wouldn't wanna mess with karma if she asked to be reunited with 🎩Sir Percy. ☮💛🌼
Stephanie, you and your Mum are absolutely beautiful! I love watching your videos and getting to know all the people at LaLande. Selmar, my mother’s family are from Holland and it’s nice to learn more about the culture when you are in the videos and share your many talents. Love to you all.
Stephanie....IA is for Iowa in the United States. She is from my state. Have been watching you during the pandemic and you don’t know how much I look forward to seeing you every week.
Oh what great fun & laughter you bring at this covid time of life. All of you make me forget the pressures of the days in lock down. Thank you for your infectious sense of humor. We've never needed laughter more than now & Stephanie you're so funny & your appreciation for life & friends is contagious. Sharing your friends helps me not being able to be with mine, thank you so much!!!
Oh! What a beautiful day of unwrapping gorgeous presents! I only pray the wish that Isabelle silently wished, was that Percy would be by her side! As I have stated before, my husband and I wanted to Europe one more time. But with COVID, we aren’t allowed international flying yet. So, we celebrated our 57th wedding anniversary at home. Blessings to everyone at La Lande. 💕🍁🍂
So many beautiful gifts! I really loved the sweater dress. The hood is fabulous and Stephanie wears it well. Also loved the vests for Jack and Thomas...they were made for them. Those two are chomping at the bit to get in there and drill and hammer something!
In Spain you usually get your ears pierced when you are still a baby so you don't remember if it was painful or not. Much better that way 😅. Mine where done with a regular needle, sounds crazy now!
I am a little bit jealous, too. I've always loved Stephanie's Big Pearl Alice Band that she wears a lot. Now!!!! Oh, my goodness. The Big Pearl Alice is surrounded by a choir of beautiful sparkle and petals. Gina, you're a generous and wonderfully creative woman. I want my girls and granddaughters to be adorned with your creations. I haven't commented on everything, although I would like to; but the gifts, all of them are fantastic with a ton of thought and love going into each one. The word 'calamity' it one of my favs. "Oh, such a calamity." with a smile of her face. Once again, thanks for the smiles and a pleasant coffee hour on this gorgeous Fall morning in Ontario. Hugs. C 💖
Thanks for a great show. It is good to see all the beautiful ladies of Lalande receive such nice gifts. I think Gina's artistry is excellent. Stephanie you looked fabulous in all the things you wore today. I much prefer those styles to the voluminous smocks you sometimes wear ( but you still look great in those :-) ) Glad to see you raising so much money for charity. regards from the UK
I think there is already a nest of LaLande monster eggs in the lake bed. They're just waiting for the water to fill the lake again to hatch. You can be on the top ten cryptozoology tours of Europe! 🤣🤣🤣🎉 You could call the first one LaLa!
Enjoyed. So happy Dan received a gift. Love all the beautiful gifts! Love gift opening day! Im on the lookout for the perfect addition to something at the chateau. Love to all ❤
Lol your earring story had me absolutely rolling! In my family (I don’t know if it’s a Maltese tradition, but all of my Maltese family) gets their ears pierced around 3-6 months old! My grandmother and her sisters said everyone in their village would get their ears pierced soon after birth, and I believe their mother (my great grandmother) did as well.
Yaaaasss!!! Calamityware!!!!! Ever since I saw this company I knew you were destined to have some!!! I laugh SO hard every time I look at them. You really need to look up the website. They have whole dish sets and clothing and everything.
Gifting is always such therapy session..laughing so much..and I must say Isabelle your neck is perfection ..aging for you is being gloriously happy...giving us all a sense of well being...adorning yourself with the presents of love. 💞💞💞💞💞💞
I think the spode spoons are for ice cream they have matching forks as well for cakes they are so beautiful I enjoy your vlogs so much you are a breath of fresh air.
Excuse my language, but bloody hell that box of Alice bands, tiaras etc are just so amazingly beautiful and just so, so generous. Gina you are a treasure yourself for your excellent taste and such generosity. That deeper corn flower blue fascinator matches your eyes Stephanie.
Honestly, the idea with the monster in the lake is fabulous, exquisite and sort of egocentric but perfect, and soooo of the track.........Hollywood will be jealous of you!
I’m sure an artist could come up with something to float out there! There are several in lakes where I live that started as old fallen tree trunks, but as those naturally disappear they were replaced by various incarnations of Nessy!
the calamityware mugs are so fabulous that whomever sent them to you has created an out of stock situation since your vlog came out. what a great gift!
The exact same happened to me with my ears, my grandparents let me get them done while on school holidays while I was about 6 and my parents didn't know 😂
The first day you met Phillip you told him he looks like a Musketeer and he has been your Hero ever since! Much love!
The Meeting of Philip! I can’t believe it was caught on film 🥰 I’m currently quarantined and catching up on Unwrapped episodes I never had the chance to see. This absolutely tickled me. How sweet!
I am just watching a year later…Stephanie didn’t know love ❤️ had arrived!
Hats off to the thoughtful person thinking of the boys' safety. Wow.
Linda Penner perhaps we could gift more to the Littles ie warm winter clothing
Marlene Sistrunk best to contact Dan and Annalise directly. They can give you info on how to send to them. Then they won’t get stuck in the backlog at Lalande. Also that’s the advice they were giving on their channel Escape to Rural France. Also same name on FB.
Erin June I’ve watched it since vlog 1 thanks but you are right on the mailing address
Agreed those boys need them hope then get sent the next size up ect
I’m glad people liked the gifts for the boys. at the time, I only had the address at Lalande. But Erin is right, you can contact Dan and Annalise for their address now. Those boys are precious and a joy to watch!
Steph, do you remember this day when you met Philips for the very first day ❤🎉😊 May you live together many, many, many years as husband wife with your kids ❤🎉
Gina..that box of hats & tiaras are Gorgeous 💐💛🤠
That was so beautiful. So much pleasure and fun in one box
Wasn’t it amazing?! I wish I could see it in person
💜Gina: 👑Major Princess Party❣How incredibly kind & generous of you. 🐴They'll be ready for every fabulous occasion, including 🏇Ascot and the 🏇Kentucky Derby (if they're still happening in C19 lockdown⚕).

Just 🎉imagining🎉 all the future festivities where these items will be cherished & enjoyed. 🕊 May God bless you as richly as you have blessed us all! ☮💛🌼
Wasn’t that such a beautifully thoughtful gift.
Gina deserves at least a weekend stay in a beautiful room of the chateau.
Kat, your voice is a gift. I would insist you read or tell after dinner stories as a soothing tonic.
Fully agree!
I've been thinking the same thing for a long time too. I keep hoping to see her just to hear her speak
Totally agree
💯💯💯
The sleeves on "Peacock Pixie" have thumbholes which you can put your thumbs through which allows you to text but keep your hands warm in colder weather. Otherwise, just as you had it on, push the sleeves up. Be sure to tighten up the lacing in the back to show off your trim figure :)
It is beautiful
please, Ellen, do you sell these? oooooh my heart!
Ellen I love this dress 👗 and its uniqueness!! I love creative people... 😍🤗
Ellen - what a gift and vision but to recycle in such an artistic way...it's inspiring as I have a brand new sewing machine (that I'm afraid of but will use it lol)

I am so glad that you got gifts Dan because you work so hard, slaving away in that hot sun.
IS= Iowa
Sorry IA = Iowa
That dress is unique! So special.
i love that the very movement you meet Phillip you hand him a tiara and he puts it on!!! that is love at first sight lolol.
Spoiler alert Mummy will steal the tea 😀
Marie had to buy her own very nice napkins for fancy dinners because Mummy has taken or squirreled them away because she wants them to be used "properly" and not be ruined...you know, "keep them in a safe place"...hahaa!
This really made me laugh :)

@@sweetvictory5643 Ok, thanks Karen.
The boys' vest - What a thoughtful, adorable gift
🌱Dan-the-man's adorable boys will be kitted out for 🛠construction with those neon green safety vests. Cute jumpers too. 🍬too sweet🍬
They absolutely love them too 😍
Watch Dan's UA-cam, Escape to Rural France and see his boys wearing the vests.
Mummy and Stephanie have the cutest Mother Daughter relationship 💛
Gina’s beautiful hats and tiaras could be worn for the chapel completion celebration❣️❣️❣️
Beautiful beautiful hats and glitter for the hair.
Yes agreed. And then a tiny hat party :)
Really beautiful work.
Susie Robinson oh yes!!!! What a beautiful idea.
Great idea!!
Thanks for letting Dan open the gifts I sent on the video. I enjoyed seeing that you all thought they were cute! I only had your address at the time to send them but now have theirs. And of course I put them in care of Isabelle! Their relationship is SO special.
Thank you Michael the boys absolutely love their gifts. Honestly they are just perfect for them!! 😘
Annalise Price I’m happy that they do! 😍
Selmar Duin You come across Soo lovely.... & Gentle... ❤️
Natty's telling her mommy that she is a Princess now.. So adorable :-)
You all are doing an excellent job at learning the abbreviations of the states here in the USA!!! I personally am from PA / Pennsylvania. Sometimes, even after 60 years, I still need to think about one!! Just to let you know IA is Iowa our corn state. IN would be Indiana.

Stephanie! You have brought together a collective of generous and caring humans and it’s a delight to watch every moment of the life you have created, with all the lovely characters who have been drawn to your energy!
Thanks :)
Wow! The mini hats and tiaras are stunning! What wonderful gifts!
I love watching Stephanie’s reaction whenever she opens a box/gifts. Like a kid opening presents on Christmas morning. Big or small gift is so appreciated. ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Stephanie, it would be great if you could introduce the new volunteers on the chateau diaries when they arrive.
Dans gift for the boys🥰🙏🏼💜🌟💫priceless 🥳🥳🥳 wow everyone’s pressies Superb 🤗💗💗💗💗💗🥳🥳🥳you all are awesome 🤣😂🤣

The ceramic mugs are from me!!! I'm in Canada, but I saw them online and had to send them to you! I sent an email note to go with them ❤
There should have been a note as well, there was an option to send a message that I filled out.
The note must have been left out somehow. But there should be an email from a misslauren88 that I sent because the space the website provided for the note was not enough.
@@misslauren881 it's frustrating that a company would overlook the note - it's sooo important
Hi Lauren,
Could you let us know where to buy this mugs from they are absolutely amazing?!
Many thanks!
The mugs are from a company called Calamity Ware
Omg first time of seeing lovely kat and your future Prince charming Philip, who would have guessed that you to would fall in love ❤️ you are the perfect couple , so much in common ❤️

Those two little boys are so so so cute. The parents are Lovely people
What a very lovely kind lady Gina, her gifts are stunning,
Does she have a website please? I would love to buy some tiaras their beautiful
How kind of her 💖
Yes it would be so nice to have links to people’s Etsy shops. I would love to support the amazing creatives who are sending gifts.
YES please send us her information!
I agree with mummy about the pierced ears 😊 it would be lovely to see photographs of you Stephanie when you were little and mummy with you . 😘
I believe this Cadeaux is one of the most fascinating I have ever seen in my life ! Everything was so marvelous...To me original. I think Selmar could wear the Peacock brooch very well, when in his dress clothes. ...or "to pimp up your terrace"...hahaa!! Loved the beetles. So, so sweet. And Steph imitating her fussy Mummy's French accent @39:13..cracked me up.
I thought the same thing. That peacock would look grest on Selmar's jacket lapel for tango.
I never knew tiny hats could make me so happy. ☺️
I love watching these gift unveiling episodes. It thrills me that so many people around the world love and appreciate you as we do. You all are a gift to us.
Stephanies reaction to the calamity cups.... PRICELESS!
I am not half English and half French I am half Italian then the other half is Mongolian polish Hungarian , German Irish , but Miss Isabelle is just like my Mama and I think she is wonderful ...I adore her like I adore my Mama!!!

Love! The hat box is spectacular. The amount of time and love involved. You are truly blessed by viewers around the world. 😍😍😍
That box had SO MANY GOODIES in it!
I cannot stop laughing over the “ It can get worse”! All of the gifts give us watchers such pleasure.
You know what Stephanie,,,what ever you may wear it fits you perfectly !You're always stunning !
Selmar had a buzz going tonight lol, I love watching him laugh!
Loved the story about "Just went out riding with Daddy...." I'm going to have to start using that as an answer every morning.
I love the things for Dans kids. And would love a link to order a sweater that beautiful!!!
I think the toile would make a beautiful lining for a vest or something like that
Oh Stephanie what an amazing art dress it's beautiful. So lovely Dan got gifts for the boys. Lovely hat isobel. Great goodies xxx
Stephanie and Mummy are adorable together!
I LOVE EVERY SINGLE THING you received today! I can't choose which gift was my favourite. I mean EVERYTHING was amazingly gorgeous and stunning! Just wow! WOW! what a day indeed!
love the elfin dress you look so beautiful in it....
I wonder how is it always people send clothing to Lalande which fits perfectly every time? 😍
Gina... do you sell those hats and tiaras. Would love to check out your store if you do? They are are gorgeous!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 the look on your face when you noticed the mugs werent regular willow ware 🤣🤣🤣
I love those mugs,because that is my saying, it drives my brother crazy. So many generous people out there sending you such beautiful gifts. I love your channels and everyone around you.🥰

Wow! Ellen, the dress in whimsical and beautiful!!! OMG!!!! Someone beat me to the Calamityware!!!!
Lol, sorry.
How thoughtful of the gifts for Dan's two young lads. I am sure they will love those construction vests.
That handmade hooded dress looks so COSY! Perfect for infront of the fire with a whiskey :)
Stephanie, you and your Mum are absolutely beautiful! I love watching your videos and getting to know all the people at LaLande. Selmar, my mother’s family are from Holland and it’s nice to learn more about the culture when you are in the videos and share your many talents. Love to you all.
Stephanie....IA is for Iowa in the United States. She is from my state. Have been watching you during the pandemic and you don’t know how much I look forward to seeing you every week.
"Pimp up your Terrace" - Ha Ha fantastic phrase.
That sweater is a popular accessory for the Maryland Renaissance Festival... a lot of people have and make them...
The dress is so beautiful, suits you as well, looks so comfy.
Oh what great fun & laughter you bring at this covid time of life.
All of you make me forget the pressures of the days in lock down. Thank you for your infectious sense of humor.

I'm from Ontario also. I sent the mugs as a bit of Canadian humour in the midst of 2020.
Wow! You get the most amazing and unique gifts! Those headpieces are incredible!
OMG - the first Philip sighting! “You look like a musketeer” - I guess he was a knight in shining armor instead ;)
A MAD HATTER Theme Party!! That would be FUN!!
That peacock brooch will be perfect on that tapestry coat u wore to Venice!
Ellen!!!! You're so talented! That is the most fun winter dress I have ever seen and so Beautiful!!!😃😃😃
Thanks for a great show. It is good to see all the beautiful ladies of Lalande receive such nice gifts. I think Gina's artistry is excellent.

Is is for Iowa.
Indiana is in.
Y'all are great and I love your family group so so very much
IA is Iowa.... darn tiny keyboard
"Pimp Up Your Terrace" 😂😂😂😂
Dan is such a cool dad. Lovely family.
I think there is already a nest of LaLande monster eggs in the lake bed. They're just waiting for the water to fill the lake again to hatch. You can be on the top ten cryptozoology tours of Europe! 🤣🤣🤣🎉
You could call the first one LaLa!
What talented,tasteful and generous viewers,some fabulous gifts that were well received.Gina your headdresses are exquisite.
The fabrics would look great on some new brocants chairs seats and backs! Or pillows!
Absolutely gorgeous.
Enjoyed. So happy Dan received a gift. Love all the beautiful gifts! Love gift opening day! Im on the lookout for the perfect addition to something at the chateau. Love to all ❤
Selmar with his hearty laugh, ..... pimping your terrace made my day.
Ellen! That dress!!!! Truly a work of art!!! Stephanie, you look precious in that dress. Can’t wait to see it with the tights and boots!
you guys always put such a smile on my face! while I am trying to rescue dogs - that is quite a feat.... thank you!!😁😊

Yaaaasss!!! Calamityware!!!!! Ever since I saw this company I knew you were destined to have some!!! I laugh SO hard every time I look at them. You really need to look up the website. They have whole dish sets and clothing and everything.
Sooo missing Percy! Hope he can be there soon!
Gifting is always such therapy session..laughing so much..and I must say Isabelle your neck is perfection ..aging for you is being
gloriously happy...giving us all a sense of well being...adorning yourself with the presents of love.

@Lydia Rowe, beautifully said! Thank you.
Stephanie, you are a jewel and so is Selmar!
I think the spode spoons are for ice cream they have matching forks as well for cakes they are so beautiful I enjoy your vlogs so much you are a breath of fresh air.
Such beautiful gifts today, especially how your outfit came together, just lovely!
Excuse my language, but bloody hell that box of Alice bands, tiaras etc are just so amazingly beautiful and just so, so generous. Gina you are a treasure yourself for your excellent taste and such generosity. That deeper corn flower blue fascinator matches your eyes Stephanie.
Honestly, the idea with the monster in the lake is fabulous, exquisite and sort of egocentric but perfect, and soooo of the track.........Hollywood will be jealous of you!
I’m sure an artist could come up with something to float out there! There are several in lakes where I live that started as old fallen tree trunks, but as those naturally disappear they were replaced by various incarnations of Nessy!
Gerry is the perfect one to grab a Nessy egg!
the calamityware mugs are so fabulous that whomever sent them to you has created an out of stock situation since your vlog came out. what a great gift!
The exact same happened to me with my ears, my grandparents let me get them done while on school holidays while I was about 6 and my parents didn't know 😂
