We need more of your sister. Y’all are wonderful but she had me laughing so hard. She really needs to stay longer than a month. ❤

It looks like BO'S KIDS DID ALOT OF WORK. DAUGHTER SURE DID NICE JOB ON PANNELING IN ORANGERY AND THAT WOW FIREPLACE!!!😍💝

Your daughter has the right idea of sitting while she works at that level but I've found that a little rolling garden stool has saved my back when doing work like this. Good job daughter!

Love the look on your sisters face eating the Tuna pizza 🍕 no thanks! I love your beautiful (home) Chateau. I like your decorating style.

Wow, Bo’s daughter did a wonderful job on the paneling and fireplace in the Orangery. It looks spectacular; she and the boys are also making a big difference on the lawn. What an asset they are in keeping and getting the Chateau in tip top shape. I’m surprised at the huge improvement you’ve made so far. Bo, those umbrellas came out like brand new. It’s amazing what you “fly boys” can do when you put your mind on it. 😃 Karen, that sister of yours is a hoot. Loved her reaction to the goat cheese, I can relate, I too hate goat cheese. Love your channel from PA, USA.

Boy, the linseed oil makes the wood panelling and fireplace surround look so rich with colour. Isn't wood beautiful? Good work. Well done to all who are working so hard. A true family effort. It is fortunate that the mould on the umbrellas cleans up fairly easily. Best wishes.

The fireplace is beautiful. Love your sister’s reaction 😂

Omg I love your sister ❤❤❤ her food reviews 😂

Really big job getting the chateau ready , the fireplace , wood work , lawns it is a labour of love.

Loved brave sister trying weird things. Glad the kids were so helpful.

Nice look around your property! Love that old horse door. It's great to have family helping out. Well done!

Put a plastic container (garbage can) tall enough to cover the fabric and 1-2 times a month fill with water and vinegar and let them soak overnight. Once you notice pollen remember to close them at night because the pollen comes out all early and the moisture from the dew makes everything covered. Then the scorching sun bakes it all together leaving a sticky surface for EVERYTHING to run and jump on. Only open the umbrella when absolutely need. I hate going to a table with a umbrella that was left outside all summer. The sun dry rotted all of the fabric. Mildew, spiders, cobwebs, bird 💩 , and the neighbors pooper scooper. Closing and opening the umbrella is no different than closing and opening the windows and shutters. Just practice. I remember seeing a comment about doing MONTHLY things. You need a vary large office with lots of open walls to do you projects. You need a wall for daily repetition jobs. A wall for project in progress. A I wish but we will see. This wall can also hold suggested project, wish list, and your “you are crazy that’s 2024 or more like 2088 to match when you get done with the shutters and you have to start all over bc they need repainting. 😂 Girl I am a list person pretty much my whole life but now that I am starting to become more forgetful list are everything. I can’t even watch a movie if I am not able to pause write down information start again. Even writing these comments take a really long time to type because I get a little lost in my thoughts. I tend to type some of the comment then I lose track so I go back and see all of the jumbled words. It’s a little bit like dislexia where to me the letters look like “ Hello how are you doing?” But in reality it’s more like “HELlo how ary yu doing. So a comment could take me 5 minutes or 50 minutes. I’m binge watching and on some of the episodes it can take me 30-40 minutes to watch then the commenting section is difficult. You can always not respond. I’m tired and can’t seem to verbalize my thought. I’m will go now.

Wow you 2 are moving along quite quickly. It is amazing how much you have done in such short time. Glad to see the kids are helping you so much. Christine you and your sister crack me up. Especially when you went out to try French food. I'm with your sister on thumbs done on tuna fish pizza. That just ain't right. Doesn't compare to real Italian pizzas. Love what you are all doing.

Bravo to your daughter on the fantastic job she has done on the Oraganerie. It looks so beautiful. I think it's my favourite building on your property. Just stunning. I love this channel thank you!

I’m with your sister on goat cheese! She’s a great sport!

The building with the collapsed roof? Beau’s kids fit right in to chateau life.

Thank you for giving us a peek into your life at the chateau. I am really enjoying you channel and look forward to more videos. I so want to visit you!!

Great episode. Kristie is hilarious.

I love your Sister!

I'm a landscape Architect in Arizona, but grew up in New York,. What I don't see in any of these restorations are colorful base plantings that have immense impact like Azaleas, Weeping cherry trees, lilacs, Wisteria vines, Hydrangeas, etc. I recall our neighbor in NY, the front of the house and down the side driveway had Azaleas planted of various colours. It was absolutely stunning in the spring. Drivers by would literally stop in the street to stare at the front of this house, (a dutch colonial built about 1750) a good idea of what it looks like are photos of the Masters golf course in Augusta Georgia , if you did similar, it would be a go to in the spring-summer for flower shows,, Put powder blue purple hydrangeas every 10' as foundation plantings, which bloom all summer and are also stunning,, Good luck,. And love all your work and saving history as well,,

What a fantastic job our daughter has done in the Orangery. The oil has brought out all the colour in the woods. The fireplace has to be one of the best I have ever seen. A job very well done😃

I can’t believe the view!!! The mountain and village!!! Wow! So unique!🏰🌸☘️🏰🌸☘️🏰🌸

Beautiful old gate on the horse stall. Do keep the windows. Orangey looks beautiful

Bo.... just call it a man cave 1🤣🤣🤣🤣

Excellent vlog thanks for sharing

Congratulations, so good to see your children kicking in Bo. Great skills for their future.

Your sister's responses are priceless! What a good sport she is. Love seeing the kids help out and they look like they are having fun doing it too. How do the kids like the tuna pizza?

What a fabulous blog. Seriously. Before you know it your going to have 25K subscribers. That will be our next goal. Most of us chateau subscribers do so because we love to see what life is like in a chateau BUT we also love to see progress regarding restoration. Some chateau owners really struggle with that. You all certainly don’t. You are all such diligent hard workers and the results are amazing. Keep up the great work.

Hi from Brazil. Started watching your channel today and I am loving it. Everything seems more natural the way you tell and explain it!

You are working hard. How nice that the children do their bit. Wishing you success.

The sister kristie moments, and music made me laugh 😂 well done on the umbrellas, might need to buy that aquipment to 😉

lol....soooooo Danish - very organized and methodic in all you do - your videos' - your work - your explanations ❤❤

Go Cowboys! Love your hat! I live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. And I love your chateau and channel.

Wow good job all

Great seeing you again! ❤ From Paris.

Here in US we don't bake/roast fowl with the head or feet attached. My wife, children and I went back to Fr. to visit her family, and one day dad was baking a rooster. He asked me if I knew why there were pigs ears in the pan. I had no idea why. Jaques said "to make the #@%& tender. Never will forget even after 50 plus yrs.

So fun watching the food tasting, We used to holiday near Sarlat when I was a kid and there were so many foods that were unfamiliar.

Your sister is a hoot 😂

You're progressing a lot in your French adventure. I hope your activity will start well this year.

Enjoying the tour of your grounds by Bo! What a beautiful orangery. The decorative tiles in it are very valuable, just so you know! Also there is a video you can watch if you need or want decorating ideas. It's called At Home in France with Timothy corrigan at Chateau du Grand-Luce He is a decorator from CA and he decorated his Chateau beautifully. I live in an apt. and I even stole some ideas from him. Good luck!♥️♥️♥️♥️😘

Is the wall between the rooms load bearing? Just wondering if removing it messes with the integrity of the structure. In the bedrooms, maybe something on the mantels and more period lamps and accessories? Love the outdoor furniture.

Laughing at your Sister 😂 poor her eating the cheese and the Walnut wine that didnt waste that flash . I brought some classic French brie cheese the other day 😖 it took me a few bits to get used to it . 😂 . The garage is going to look neat love the big old beams and stable door u could cover the bird holes up and still keep the birdy door maybe . Great to have a extra helping hand around the place with Beau s children around . Love the video the place looks so much better . ❤

Great vlog. It is wonderful seeing the kids help and earn pocket money. I like the plan for the barn. The chairs and tables look new again. Bo, I haven't seen blue eyes like yours since my dad passed away in 1997. Just had to tell you that.

Outdoor furniture looks great! You likley have a near permenat dimple in your index finger now! I've done a lot of paint with a spray can like Bo. Becomes painful after a while..... Fantastic to see all the kids joining in too. Treasure the memories. The adventure continues,

Bo great idea about the shop!

I would love a video on your relationship. How you met, how long have you been together. Family. Also one on The road to the chateau.

Nice as the pigeon windows are…Bo s correct ..keep the birds outside . Ur daughter did a fine job on the panelling…..and that’s a real ornate fire surround.

As a thought, if you've a mind to is build a enclosed pigeon coup up where the windows are, that gives a nesting and sanctuary resting spot for pigeons who were a part of French culture for centuries, just my 2c..

Garage is his man cave, they use to collect pigeon eggs and eat squab

Ah Shucks! It's goat cheese???? VienneNO?? You sister is just like my sisiter.......a rather limited pallet but just a hoot! The kids did a great job getting some of the Springs gardening done.....the oiling of the paneling and fireplace looks amazing! WoW! That wood was really thirsty! The garage/horse stall is coming along and I agree with Bo, no pigeons in the workshop but leave the little window in place, block up the holes and put a couple of ceramic or cement pigeons on the rests.......It will keep the real pigeons away or start a big fight! Beautiful weather!! Cheers!

Have you considered a fabric guard for the outside umbrella's?

Sådan! Ægte viking power , det var flot kæmpet af bo’s børn, det koster kræfter og svinge “Thors hammer” 💪 og virkelig smukt oile arbejde,med panelerne i orangeriet, det kan hun godt være stolt af.sjovt indslag med karen’s søster og god humor, hvergang billedet kom, med hendes fad, med and gav et lille grin hver gang. Tak for god underholdning, ser frem til næste episode 😊

How are your plants 🪴? Been wondering since I love gardening. Hope they are doing well. Love your segment on Sister Kristie tries french food. Great job as always.

Personally, I’d bury that Cowboys cap. 😂 Woodwork is beautifully done!

Enjoy the videos! If I can suggest investing in a mic for external segments like the barn, it would make it easier to hear. Look forward to more adventures. Good luck.

I like the way you are segmenting the vlog. What a great sport your sister is to try all those unique foods. Do you have non-queen rooms fixed up that family stay in when they visit. How many rooms total do you have.

What a delightful vlog…..your sister reminds me of me…..adventurous in my mind, but actions…..not so much

i love your chanel and follow you since the beginning. Would be great if you step up in Video Quality :)

Where in the states are you from?? It's like you both have a slight accent, so didn't think neither of you, Kristie and Karen, were from the states. I'm guessing Minnesota?

how long have you had the Chateau

A-peh-ruh-teef

Where are you both originally from? ❤️🙏

Bo dont destroy the horses area too many of these chateau buyers destroying the ambience of chateaus surely there is some way of keeping the true build leaving the pigeon holes Dont become a chateau vandal as many people destroy these majestic buildings .You will be no better than others who turn there chateaus into modern hotels and lose the ambience

You do realize that children cannot work in France don't you??? Under 16 is illegal and 16-18 is limited to part-time.....and they must be paid and social security paid for them as well as social charges..poor kids, treated like slaves.....
