Watching this again and letting the commercials roll. Guess what guys, your kitchen is done, it looks beautiful and you were able to make Christmas dinner in. your new kitchen. 💗💗💗
Your boys make me smile so much! You’re a lovely family & you’re doing a beautiful job with them! You’re so calm & gentle. They are lucky babies to have you!!
Sadly I cannot afford to become a patron as I only have a small fixed pension but I like to think that by subscribing, liking 👍🏻, commenting and watching all the adverts that I’m making a small contribution to the success of your channel and in turn, your renovations. You’re an adorable family and deserve every success and luck. Bountiful blessings. 💚🌸😊
I like how you and your wife work together and let the little ones help. What a cute family. Your both are such wonderful parents. Love your vlogs. Keep them coming.
I agree that the oak you have is best used for the small floor space you want to create. It's going to look great once laid and treated to match the beams 👍🏻
👨🏽🍳👨🏽🌾👏🏽. . .yes, but Cookies, in about 16 years, your boys will be bragging, "Daddy built this, and that, and planted these and restored those. The entire place serves as a testament to Daddy's skill and love of family. And wait till they can watch the vlogs. That will be riotous - memories for the vault.💗💖
Thomas is making great progress with his walking and Jack is the best big brother...holding his hand in the parking lot melted my heart. Wonderful vlog as we share your adventure. Cheers from 🇨🇦.
Me too. I am lucky enough to live only a few miles away from mine, but I have been shielding since mid March, and have only seen him outside from a distance. I want to cuddle him so badly it hurts! These 2 are adorable.
Me too am recovering from cancer so my son is so scared of me catching anything .i can honestly say this family make me feel happy. My son is also renervateing is home and he also is young with young family and wife. Thats why i love this family thay remind me of my son and his little family he also has 2 boys and a little girl. This family just cheers me up and you just want them to achieve everything thay are doing and thay will because thay work has a team.thay are just marvellous .i really miss my family. Thank you for shareing your lifes with us all we all do appreciate you all💖🙏💖😷💖xxxx
I have got my first Grandchild, a boy, born nearly a year and a half ago 3 months premature in Texas. Only seen him in photos and so worried at first but he is ok now, 2 teeth, standing and almost walking. Shall we form a support group, ladies?😊
Wow it was so worth driving 2 hours to IKEA to get those kitchen doors for €10 each. And the old oak boards looked fantastic you must use them, your kitchen is going to look fabulous when it's done. Your boys are so cute. 😍😍
Love the vlog so much, guys!!! The old boards look amazing in the kitchen. Thanks for taking us along on your IKEA adventures and holiday celebrations!
Lovely vlog. Reminds me of our Tom and Jack at that age, they used to love a trip to IKEA. They are now 30 and 31 and still love IKEA. I visited Clermont Ferrand and Mont D’or with my family in 1974, lovely to see it in the distance again.
Such a lovey vlog - congratulations on your parenting style, patience and inclusion- fabulous. The boards look great, congrats on getting the doors on sale - we all love a bargain 😝
Definitely go the rustic old boards, they'll look fabulous and if you're going for the super sleek stainless steel look as well that juxtaposition will be perfect!
Oui. 😍Love the notion of that authentic French "farmhouse" mixed w/an industrial restaurant vibe. 💲Fabulous find on those IKEA "SS" cabinet doors too. Great that they stocked up on some doors & discount hinges too. 😉 Using metals, some iron, etc. will also keep some surfaces safe from dratted wood worm infiltration🐛. 🤔 Had a pal w/a micro apt who used a similar stainless steel clad door screwed on top of a solid vintage cabinet for her island. She added big industrial locking casters to make it counter height (as well as roll it out of the way when not needed). It made a handsome contrast of old & new. Plus, it was a perfect surface for rolling all kinds of 🥖dough🥐!
I watch Thomas Johnson Antique restoration. My house is a 1913 Victorian. I use epoxy in damaged wood. Mix the resin with the hardener, add the stain. The old flooring then looks great without having to replace it. West System 105 resin, 206 hardener, and Mohawk powder stain. He texts me if I ask him for advise in one day. He restores furniture, but he has helped me save 100 year old furniture, and flooring.
Your kitchen is going to be amazing! An induction hob will be amazing with the two boys - they heat up quickly and then start cooling down as soon as you take the saucepan off the hob! Your boys are so adorable I love to hear them giggling!!!
Someone may have already said this, and you may know this, Dan. IF you do get an induction cooktop, I suggest you get insurance for the glass top. It's easy to crack, but the technology is fantastic. Annelise, Stephanie's hard looks better than ever since wearing your pink robe! You two are so diversely talented, and who can resist those boys❣ they are adorable.
YESSSSS GET THAT AS-IS PRICE!! I always have the best luck in As-Is, sometimes it’s taken a few months of checking, but I’ve found so many of my bigger-ticket IKEA wishlist in there!!
👀 Looks the same as 🇺🇸US -- except for ⚜signage & 💶. Been spoiled with an IKEA located in Burbank since they first came to the States. Used to live in walking🚶♀️distance for the majority of that time. Now, I'm 15 minutes away by 🚗 car. Well, in 2015 they broke ground for the largest IKEA in the whole of 🦅America. It opened in 2017 only a mile away from the original location to big 🤹♀️fanfare 🤹♂️. The first 26 ppl in line got a free leather sofa while first 100 got a free chair. Kids got a free cushion. 🤸♀️It is 456,000 square feet. It has a 50% larger showroom & marketplace🛍. The self-serve warehouse is 3xs the size of the old. It has 50 decorated room settings (vs the 17 rooms of old). 🍽The restaurant now has 600 seats. It has 1,700 parking 🚘spaces available. 👍At the time, they hired 150 more employees which still did not seem nearly enough to staff this behemoth. (🏢The old building is supposed to turn into an apartment complex.) Sadly, our IKEA had 🚫closed🚫 for quite awhile in 2020. 🎉It is finally operational again, but not sure the hours are back to normal yet. 🙏Pray the scientists🔬get a handle on this C-19 pandemic & create a safe vaccine💉 for us all. ☮🦋💛🦋☮
I'm not huge on the aesthetic of steel, but for keeping things clean, you can't beat it. Plus, looks great all polished, while not being too precious. And fingerprints on steel tells you that handwashing needs to happen. Wood doesn't always reveal its dirty li-ell secrets.
Not familiar with forced air. 🤔 I do understand some ritzy models (way out of my💲price point) have🌡heat & air 🌬 that can be ⤴️directional⤵️. The 👩🍳cook can decide whether or not the 🔥heat🔥 is directed from top or below depending upon what is best for the dish🍜. 😍 Fell in love w/the wonders of convection. Tried a bunch of experiments on an Air-Fryer small appliance that uses the same convection technology. 😁 The idea is you can get the mouth feel of crispy fried foods w/o needing to deep fry. 🍟Am a pommes-frites girl as well as a falafel fan, but don't need stuff submerged in a vat of hot cooking oil 😣. Also made beautifully roasted 🥕veggies & bread🍞 in it. My pal loves his hot wings! 😉 Only wish we got the fancier model with the dehydrator capability. It would be cool to make our own veggie chips (crisps). ☮🌼🦋💛🦋🌼☮
Hi guys way to go another great video. Great job on the pumpkin carving and the boys are so cute in their costumes. Look forward to your next video, take care and stay safe. ❤️🙂
Aww I melted hearing Jack giggle 🤗 you have such sweet kids . I miss my kids being little . I've 3 son and a daughter all my boys ( I say boys their 24, 31 and 33 😂😂😂) are over 6 ft tall . My daughter is 23 next month ... a short like me 5ft with the biggest personality she's also a security guard 😂😂 my little pit bull . Enjoy the kids while there young they grow so quickly . Bless you all stay safe
Hi. My house is 60yr old and the frame is made of hardwood which is almost impossible to put a nail into. Apparently the hardwoods here in Australia fossilize once they're cut. Perhaps it's a characteristic of certain types of timber. Loving your channel. Cute little ones too.
Hey Dan, here's a thought about some of the old beams & boards where you have a good side & a bad side. You might try to plane or cut the bad side off & then laminate a board or piece of lumber to the old original beams or boards & then expose only the good side of the old beams & boards. That would allow you to have the same integrity of the original boards or beams while still looking antique. Laminated beams are often used in the USA to to span long/wide widths. Some even have a flat steel rod sandwiched into the wood, providing even more strength. The outside of the new piece can be aged & stained to match the old wood, if needed.
My kids and I did the pumpkin carving thing one time. That was enough for them. They didn't like Easter egg dying either, they just wanted the eggs turned into deviled eggs.
Oh my goodness I see some spooky pumpkins on here! Darling little guys!👻 I love the way things are coming along too. Tje boards look great- I hope theres enough! Have a great week!
You guys are the cutest! So glad things are coming along. Plus you have best helpers around! Love the Jack o Lanterns! I carved a pumpkin with my 21/2 year old Granddaughter. She loved it! We had the best time!
I really enjoyed your vlog and it is always nice to have a family day out. I love taking my little grandkids to Ikea it is their favorite place to go, we are lucky enough to be 5 minutes from Ikea. If it means anything I also love the look of the beams. The less you can spend on the little things of the kitchen the more you can save for the ovens you love.
The old oak boards looked great but I wonder if you should remove the rotten beam. It might be better than worrying about it later. Bless your cute babies. I too always go to the bargain/discounted section😊I cant wait to see how your kitchen will turn out
I agree induction hob are brilliant I have a neff one at home. At least the boys won’t get fingers burnt. If they turn it on by mistake. Nothing like shopping for your home and getting what you need. 👍🏻x
ha ha ha! Your wife has it right! Meatballs!!!! The closest IKEA to me is 3.5 hours away and when I DO go....meatballs and mashed is first order! :) Lovely vlog! Teresa
When you buy stove top make sure you can do canning on it. So you can put up your food for winter. Not all stoves are alike. Friend bought a new stove found out she couldn't can on it. End up doing canning outside( outside burner)
Whack the oak boards with a hammer all the way along the length. That way you will know for certain before you waste anytime on sanding. If it is rotten, the hammer will leave a big or little hole depending on how rotten they are! It is also very satisfying.
🦋 True. In most circumstances, I usually err on the side of wanting to maximise every inch of household space. In rural 🌾France imagining all the ppl wanting to visit. Plus, a lofted space above kitchen would get quite toasty too, esp. in 🌨Winter❄. Could make a nice 📖 reading nook📚 or guest space 🛏. 🤔 Maybe they could sponser a work-away volunteer. 💪Lots of folks would love to help them labor on the property🌱.
I like IKEA Teflon fry pans , they last a long time before they start to stick. I got a pantry from there and it has full pull out shelves and it it’s great. I could wonder for hours in IKEA but not my husband.
Those adorable boys have their mother's beautiful eyes.
Precious babies!
Watching this again and letting the commercials roll. Guess what guys, your kitchen is done, it looks beautiful and you were able to make Christmas dinner in. your new kitchen. 💗💗💗
Such happy handsome little boys! Adorable!
I didn't know it was so difficult to find decent wood in a pile! That was a good treasure Hunt!!!
What a little sweetie Jack is... so inquisitive, but yet so anxious to help and do. Adorable the both of them.
Your boys make me smile so much! You’re a lovely family & you’re doing a beautiful job with them! You’re so calm & gentle. They are lucky babies to have you!!
Sadly I cannot afford to become a patron as I only have a small fixed pension but I like to think that by subscribing, liking 👍🏻, commenting and watching all the adverts that I’m making a small contribution to the success of your channel and in turn, your renovations.
You’re an adorable family and deserve every success and luck. Bountiful blessings. 💚🌸😊
You can tell their good natured boy's Adorable babies 💜
I like how you and your wife work together and let the little ones help. What a cute family. Your both are such wonderful parents. Love your vlogs. Keep them coming.
Also Annalise great job on Stephanie’s hair it looked great I’m sure it’s safe to say you have a new client. 💗👍
I agree that the oak you have is best used for the small floor space you want to create.
It's going to look great once laid and treated to match the beams 👍🏻
Two of the cutiest wee boys...I love the way you let them potter and help you both...your lovely parents 💕
I really like the way the boards look up there. And yes they do look as if they were always there
I absolutely love the rustic look 🥰
👨🏽🍳👨🏽🌾👏🏽. . .yes, but Cookies, in about 16 years, your boys will be bragging, "Daddy built this, and that, and planted these and restored those. The entire place serves as a testament to Daddy's skill and love of family. And wait till they can watch the vlogs. That will be riotous - memories for the vault.💗💖
What a wholesome family 💕 Quality entertainment
Your boys always seem so full of joy! Adorable 😍
I love how beautifully relaxed they are with their children. ❤
sweet memories for the boys, these times will be precious to them
Thomas is making great progress with his walking and Jack is the best big brother...holding his hand in the parking lot melted my heart. Wonderful vlog as we share your adventure. Cheers from 🇨🇦.
I want to live long enough to see these adorable boys grow up. I see more of them than my grandson during covid.
@Carolyn gross Me too! I'm in New York and my grandsons are in Edinburgh UK. It's almost a year since I was there with them.
Me too. I am lucky enough to live only a few miles away from mine, but I have been shielding since mid March, and have only seen him outside from a distance. I want to cuddle him so badly it hurts! These 2 are adorable.
Me too am recovering from cancer so my son is so scared of me catching anything .i can honestly say this family make me feel happy.

Car park tours are MY specialty. :>)
😂
That adorable laugh when he sees the pumpkin guts! 😂
I think the timber boards on top of the beams looks exactly right for the kitchen.
Hello Jill, I see we both enjoy some of the same videos. Have a nice evening.
@@lisaglynn3121 We sure do. 😁😁😁
That giggle would melt anyone's heart, just gorgeous!
Those are the sweetest little nuggets in their pumpkin costumes!
Dan you are so creative 😃 I absolutely love the authentic look!!!
Your boys are adorable. I love how much time you spend with them although I know you could do more when they're not around.
Oh, those little boys of yours warm my heart.
I really like how the ceiling will be those rustic boards, it will look really good.
Aww, little Jack and Thomas look cute in there pumpkin outfits xxxx
Your boys are so sweet together. Big shout out to Annalise for Stephanie's new hair colour, it looks great, the best I've seen it.
Great job on the pumpkins guys! Really think the old oak looks very good...no need for new planks. Looks authentic!
Wow it was so worth driving 2 hours to IKEA to get those kitchen doors for €10 each.
And the old oak boards looked fantastic you must use them, your kitchen is going to look fabulous when it's done.
Your boys are so cute. 😍😍
I absolutely adore these sweet boys! Its looking good over there, I like the old oak boards as well! Please stay safe and well.
The little ones are adorable and the vlog was very interesting...liked the distant view of the Alps and the visit to IKEA......thank you.
Love the vlog so much, guys!!! The old boards look amazing in the kitchen. Thanks for taking us along on your IKEA adventures and holiday celebrations!

Love the longer format ! :)
I love the mom - she’s so cute. She has the cutest accent!
Definitely go the rustic old boards, they'll look fabulous and if you're going for the super sleek stainless steel look as well that juxtaposition will be perfect!
Oui. 😍Love the notion of that authentic French "farmhouse" mixed w/an industrial restaurant vibe.

I hope both you and Isabelle are having a wonderful time together xxx
@@cheriesharp234 I hope that percy is having a great time with Isobella, not me but thanks
Gorgeous, cute little boys . Still laughing even after a long car journey . 😍
it's such a pleasure to follow your little family, you're such lovely parents for the boys.
I like the old wood on the ceiling. Looks perfect and it will be really nice when it is oiled
The old wood looks great, so nice to reuse and also save money. The boys are so precious, just love you all and love seeing your vlogs. Cheers!!
A and D......love the area outside pics on your drive. Feel free to film more often when you drive places so we can see the real France. :-)
Those boys are SO adorable!!
Dan, you certainly are talented !!
Thank you Dan and Annalise for your amazing vlog. You are making progress!

Love Halloween for kiddos, it’s so much fun to watch them🧡🍁🧡
Fantastic vlogs. Love the progress and the roof beams ✅✅✅✅✅

💖Truly love induction💖

The boards look great. So in keeping with the room

Adorable boys with wonderful parents.
Yay my favourite family on UA-cam 😊💖🙏💖stay safe 💖😷💖xxxx
The forced air ovens are amazing, my son got me a cooker with that feature and I love it

"We should just film the vlog in IKEA from now on and pretend it's our house" 🤣.
Love it!!!!

Oh yes, Halloween video!! .., Thank you for sharing 💞
Closest Ikea to me is about an hour away. Love the place but haven't been in 5 years 🤣😂
Annalise you’re so pretty and fun. You have done a great job with the boys. And Stephanie’s hair was the best I ever seen it. Congratulations 🎉. Texas
Love your family and so outgoing. I hope you find what you need at Ikea
What a pleasure to see you enjoying the pumpkin carving. Jack and Thomas are just the cutest 😊
I watched an episode of the Repair Shop where they mixed some pigment in with the wood fill to match colour of wood to blend out woodworm holes
Oh my goodness I see some spooky pumpkins on here! Darling little guys!👻 I love the way things are coming along too. Tje boards look great- I hope theres enough! Have a great week!
THAT is the LARGEST Marmite jar ever!
I love the whoops corner in ikea , bought fab posh plates for 1€ each
You guys are the cutest! So glad things are coming along. Plus you have best helpers around! Love the Jack o Lanterns! I carved a pumpkin with my 21/2 year old Granddaughter. She loved it! We had the best time!
I really enjoyed your vlog and it is always nice to have a family day out. I love taking my little grandkids to Ikea it is their favorite place to go, we are lucky enough to be 5 minutes from Ikea. If it means anything I also love the look of the beams. The less you can spend on the little things of the kitchen the more you can save for the ovens you love.
Dan, When pointing stone or brick, put on a set of headphones and listen to your favorite playlist or an audiobook.
The old oak boards looked great but I wonder if you should remove the rotten beam. It might be better than worrying about it later.
Bless your cute babies. I too always go to the bargain/discounted section😊I cant wait to see how your kitchen will turn out
Precious!!!!
I agree induction hob are brilliant I have a neff one at home. At least the boys won’t get fingers burnt. If they turn it on by mistake. Nothing like shopping for your home and getting what you need. 👍🏻x
The closest IKEA to me is 3hrs away and in another state. Went last month the food court was closed. Its really fun to walk around and dream.
Can I brag and say mine is 5 mn away but has been closed for almost 2 months ....
ha ha ha! Your wife has it right! Meatballs!!!! The closest IKEA to me is 3.5 hours away and when I DO go....meatballs and mashed is first order! :) Lovely vlog! Teresa
All looking good 👌 oil the wood first, then fix them in place, so much easier. X
When you buy stove top make sure you can do canning on it. So you can put up your food for winter. Not all stoves are alike. Friend bought a new stove found out she couldn't can on it. End up doing canning outside( outside burner)
An induction cooker sounds like a good idea; considering the energy problems
Whack the oak boards with a hammer all the way along the length. That way you will know for certain before you waste anytime on sanding. If it is rotten, the hammer will leave a big or little hole depending on how rotten they are! It is also very satisfying.
🔨Sounds good to me!
Your boys are just fabulous
I love the boards, personally, I’d board out the entire space and use it for something, it’s a big space.
🦋 True. In most circumstances,
I usually err on the side of wanting to maximise every inch of household space. In rural
🌾France imagining all the ppl wanting to visit.
Plus, a lofted space above kitchen would get quite toasty too, esp. in 🌨Winter❄. Could make a nice 📖 reading nook📚
or guest space 🛏.
🤔 Maybe they could sponser a work-away volunteer. 💪Lots of folks would love to help them labor on the property🌱.
I love a yellow sticker, hope those kitchen doors were the right size.
Ah, I know the IKEA in Clermont. We go to Lac Chambon about 30 mins from there every April/May. Beautiful area
💙🤍❤️
I like IKEA Teflon fry pans , they last a long time before they start to stick. I got a pantry from there and it has full pull out shelves and it it’s great.
I could wonder for hours in IKEA but not my husband.
