Thank you Amy for catching us up. You look rested and pretty. Wishing Marc a speedy recovery. You do live in paradise.

Thank you for giving us the chance to see Emma swim. I watched her for hours- it was amazing. She’s amazing.

Always a great day when Amy is chatting with us!❤️❤️🇨🇦

Your chats are always lovely and put a smile on my face. I hope Marc feels better and you also. xx

Lol....glad you are alive! Sorry about those broken ribs and strained bodies. Hope you're both healing quickly and well. Thanks for the updates and what's to come for future videos!

Thank you Amy for the update. I hope Marc recovers well. It’s good to hear the children are well. Take care and be safe.

Such a relief to see your channel back! I can't wait to see the progress and the catch up!!!! Be careful with the injuries. I did the same thing with yardwork.

Thank you for all your news. So glad you are OK.

Big congrats to Emma! Sorry to hear about the injuries, hope everyone heals up quickly. You have definitely been busy. Great update! 😊

So sorry about the injuries; broken ribs are particularly painful (breathing and all that...)! Glad you've got extra help right now!

Hello Amy, a huge hug 🤗, you are amazing!! Marc, I’m sorry about your injury-it’s frustrating!

Happy to see your smiling face again Amy! Glad to hear that the scary oven is gone.

Thank you for the update 😃🙏🏼💗 Hope you are well soon. 🌸 Can’t wait to see your new videos 😁 Have a good week !

You take a lil chocolate when needed! Marc heal up plz,enjoy the warm days as long as possible!

Welcome back Amy! Sorry to hear of you and Marc’s physical challenges. I don’t know how either of you keep up even with the sometimes volunteers. Think back to when the Château was supported by several servants and you and Marc are doing it on your own with minimal help. Corageous!

So pleased to hear from you! I've had the broken ribs, poor Marc! I hope he's at the point where he can breathe without too much pain. You look great, Amy. Thank you for sharing your beautiful landscape with us. We are having no fall here in Nebraska. It was 92 F (33 C) here AGAIN today. I love hot weather but it would be nice to have something in the mid 70s (20s to you) for a break. Although that means winter...

So happy to see you safe and well. Hope Mark heals quickly. Broken ribs can be tricky. Looking forward to upcoming vlogs.

Amy, spray the spiders with peppermint oil. I did that in my house in Germany and I never saw another one. I sprayed around the windows , doors etc... Wished I had known about this 20 years earlier as they always came in every spring and fall. So happy to see you again.

Good to see you back. I'm looking forward to seeing your future videos. ❤

You made my day! I love your chatty vlogs! Sending Marc warmest wishes for a rapid recovery.

Best wishes to Marc! So sorry he hurt himself. So nice to see you and to have a catch up! Love hearing from you Amy.

You're such a wonderful woman

You’re looking good Amy, it’s lovely to hear from you but also fully understand the enormity of all the undertakings that are in progress. Look after yourselves, we all enjoy vicariously your chateau lifestyle & keep up the good work. Your personal delivery holds the vlogg altogether. 😊😊

Great to see and hear from you Amy. Poor Marc ! Looking forward to future videos…..

Loving the catchup. Let Margot know that short videos are good, just to keep us in the loop. Love watching your day-to-day lives. ❤

Thanks for the update Amy ( despite spiders lurking about! 😳) Wishing Mark a speedy recovery & BIG HUGS to your precious children 🤗❤️

love the quick update. thx

Good to see you again, looking forward to see the progress in the coach house

Yay!!! 😊 Oh my 😒, oh dear. Can't wait!😍

Hi! I'm happy to see you. Thank you for the lovely catch-up. I'm sorry to hear of the broken bones, but glad it wasn't more serious. I love that you accept visitors who offer help and entertainment value. You are indeed very brave to share a bathroom with guests. Looking forward to seeing more of what's been up with you. :heart:

Lovely to see you again 😁 thanks for the update 😁 I look forward to seeing the upcoming videos 😁 hope Marc feels better soon 😁

What a wonderful surprise.. it's so good to see you back..I know you are so busy so dont worry we are still here when you can be..❤

You look well rested. I hope Marc heals quickly. Thank you for the update.

So glad to see you back 😃

Amy I enjoy your humor. I can’t wait to see all of your upcoming videos. Always enjoy.

I am so sorry about your health problems, and hope you are mending well and speedily. good luck with your patron days and keep up with the good work.

Good to hear from you....take care of yourselves

Dear Amy - 'sounds like your life is just lovely 😊 savor every moment ❤

Amy you. Look beautiful glad your taking the time for yourself ❤

Hope Marc gets well soon. Would love to see the playhouse

Lovely to see you back. I remember the days of raising small children while renovating property and take my hat off to you for your endeavours. It’s lovely to have a glimpse of your progress when you have time to share it with us. Wishing you all the best xx

Chin up , thank you for the update very much.

We tracked Emma's swim here in Australia and were so thrilled when she finished safely. It was very exciting. What a wonderful thing they are doing in Africa. It restores my faith in human nature.

Many thanks for the catchup 😊

You've been busy,push on . Be careful tho.

How frustrating about what happened too both you n Marc… hope you both feel better

Thanks for the update. Best wishes to Marc. This was a nice presentation ❤

I enjoyed your update, sorry about yours and Marc’s injuries, take it easy for a while if you can.

love you guys

Your property is so beautiful! Love your driveway, what a great walk it must be. Thanks for sharing.

So good to get a catch up. Mark will have a weakness with those ribs he damaged before, I have the same problem, not pleasant at all. The spiders freak me out too. The weather here in uk is also sunny warm unusually so and at night. No thermals yet. Really missed your vlogs, great more in pipe line.!! WCL

O my goodness. I hope your family is going better. 🙏 please Careful. God bless you all and keep safe.

Hey, welcome back .. figured you were busy

They aren't cheap, but there are amazing propane incinerating toilets for off grid life these days. Worth a look to expand your bathroom options. :)

Great to hear the latest in what’s happening there. Sorry for the slow downs, injuries & failed appliances…but it seems like you’re still moving forward! Well done❤

So nice to see you. You are looking so pretty, Amy! I'm glad the weather is beautiful. I hope Marc is feeling better now, cracked ribs are no fun. Hugs to you all and can't wait to see the upcoming videos. Go Margo!

Love the update the music, and the beautiful scenery.

Broken bones in a young person might be a sign of early osteoporosis! I would suggest a bone scan and a checkup with your doctor. Early treatment is relatively inexpensive and beneficial. I fractured my spine in a private airplane crash. Thx for bringing us along. 😊😊😊 John Ken

Hope you are feeling well now Amy ❤

Good luck on your Patreon weekend! Will look forward to seeing the highlights😊. And, I'm so thankful that oven is gone. It was a highly suspicious appliance😮. Good riddance!

Well wishes to you all! I always enjoy your vlogs. You are looking very happy and healthy. I hope Marc heals quickly!

Love Amy's laugh!

Thanks for update 💐 love the footage at the end 🤗👍 Love Sue❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤

Amy, I was so happy to see that you posted a new video, and its great to hear about the wonderful things happening at the chateau. Please send my condolences to Marc for his unfortunate rib injury. I do hope his recovery goes smoothly!

🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Looking forward to seeing what you have been up to.

My family has a joke about big projects of our dreams, "If only we had the Kew Gardeners" I bet Marc and you wish you had the team from Kew.

Hi Amy. All good wishes to you. Enjoy your time. Many good wishes😊

Lol. You just got caught. Lol. I love chocolate too. I don’t like spiders either. Hee hee!! When I do come to France I hope to meet you and your family!!!! My kids were the same way about their toys. One time my kids left their toys in the middle of the stair case. I came down stairs didn’t see it and I went skiing all the way down the staircase. That hurt. Lol. But love kids!! Lots of love from Tennessee

So glad to hear your update! Praying for quick healing for Marc. I can't wait to see all the catch up videos! You're looking well!

thank you for the update sorry about marc's ribs ouch , your so lucky longer summer there here rather chilly .

So happy for the updates....thank you Amy. Sounds like things are going well for you and look forward to seeing the upcoming videos. Love from Canada xo

Oh no, all good wishes to Marc x.

Sorry to hear that Marc is going through some painful recovery. I hope that he allows himself to actually heal. Remember Marc, it’s a lifetime job so be patient with yourself and your body. And Amy, please don’t overdo things as you try to fill in for Marc. I remember some delicious meals that came out of that oven. Shall we organize a French version of an Irish wake to celebrate the many years of keeping food production going? I will bring the wine ❤😊

So happy to see you back again. Sounds like a very busy and also trying time. Hope Mark is healing. Amy take care as you have so much to manage. Looking forward to seeing your upcoming videos. Deborah North Carolina 😊❤❤❤

Thank you !! Cannot wait !!! So much stuff has happened !!🥰🥰

Thankyou Amy, great vlog, always a joy x

I didn't know about the Facebook and I don't do Instagram (rather it doesn't seem to do me) but I did watch Emma on the timeline. It didn't seem very accurate at the start, it seemed to take a fairly long time to for her boat info to catch up with the swim. It finally did and I was able to follow fairly well even though the time difference was a lot. Great to see you back Amy, sorry about Mark. He has had his problems this past summer. You look great so I'm hoping your doctor appointments went well and it didn't turn out to be a major source of concern.

Great to hear of progress! It looks like mid-summer there - we've had so much cool weather that fall has started early (in the middle of the US) - heat waves all around us, and we've been the opposite.

Great to her from you Amy, sounds like mad fun!😵‍💫😵‍💫

Thank you for the update and quick healing.

Welcome back 🎉🎉🎉Glad everyone is ok and wishing Marc a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹 So proud that Emma completed her swim 🏊 Looking forward to the upcoming vlogs. You definitely live in paradise ❤❤❤Cracked up at the bit of chocolate 🍫 as I have been guilty of the same 😂😂😂

Busy people

Thank you for the beautiful update! There is nothing like a great Shared Bath!...LOL I don't know if you have been following Escape to CDL&M but we have added another thousand square feet in the attic, where someone, evidently on TTL said that I have hidden the Picasso Gallery! Well, there is a 30 foot enormous vaulted space and future Cathedral Apartment, and a new staircase to the 5th level of ARIA where no foot has walked in the last 170 years until now (and thousands of square feet of attic space to be built into closets for decorations, linens, etc, as the enormous house desperately needs storage space). So now the house is nineteen thousand square feet! Well is was already larger than the other largest building in town, and they listed as over 19K square feet, so I think the mansion is now over twenty thousand square feet. I would love to come over sometime and visit with you. Lots of love from ARIA, Dauphin of Lalande, Jason Dubey

You look well and happy. 😊 This really pleases me. Looking forward to more videos. ❤

So nice to see you and get an update, Im happy your all on the mend, Congratulations Emma!!! God bless you all,

Thank you so much for the quick roundup video! I’m glad you’re making great progress, and hope you both heal quickly. Looking forward to the new videos, but totally understand why there’s been a break. ♥️ Interesting to hear your horse chestnuts are back in bloom. My mock orange decided to have another round… well, just one blossom, but it’s ginormous (for a mock orange).

Amy glad to see you and the family are still alive and kicking. I've missed you & the family and just figured you were very busy at the cottage. When does the renovation at the Chateau start, are you & Mark hiring someone else to do the work or do you plan on doing alot of the work yourself? See you later, Kathy USA 🇺🇸

Thanks for taking the time to update us! The video quality looks sharper. New camera?

Thanks or the update Amy..you look so very pretty. Hope Marc is ok. Take care…see you soon. Hugs Dottie xx

Good afternoon from the glorious SF Bay Area. So glad to see and hear you and all the news. I guess I should follow you on FB because I couldn't see anything about Emma's swim. I have really cut back on Instagram and FB but I see all you chateau folks use them a lot. Be well, wish I could afford to come and use my many talents to help out. Upholstering is way fun and satisfying after all the pain of trial and error. Love to all.

Amy, thanks for popping in to update us. Huge congratulations to Emma. Mark, I hope you heal up fast. Amy, I hope your feeling better. I look forward to more videos. Lots of love and prayers for healing. ❤

Thank you Amy, knew you were going to working on a lot of major projects, but happy for you!! 🎉🎉🎉

Good to see you and thanks for the update. Similarly, I've been vey busy with work on my house in the south of France and haven't been watching KZfaq much, but I was curious to know how you guys are doing. Cheers-

You are a Spunk Amy . Sending healing wishes to Mark and yourself.Looking forward to seeing the results of all your very hard work.🎉🥳

Lovely to see you and hear about all the good stuff coming our way. The outdoor shots are so beautiful- hope it stays fine for the patrons - and hope sometime to visit myself. ❤

Lovely seeing and hearing from you again ☺❤ You look amazing. Looking forward for upcoming videos. Sounds really exiting. Wishing all the best for Marc. Hope for a fast recovery 🙏 Wishing you all a great Patreon weekend! ☺

Brilliant to see you again.Thank you for bringing us all your news Eileen
