When Davey brought out all that Play Mobil I just thought; 'it's always the quiet ones.'😂😂😂
Lol
i am not into the playmoble stuff…but…seeing the joy it brought to so many! who can’t help but hop on that bandwagon? 🦩🦚🦔
Lovely to see the normally shy Davie looking so animated and he so suits the new beard,hope we get to see more of this nice young man.
I loved seeing one man showing another man how to bake bread and such patience Michael.
I'm dying here.......Michael Potts made his Playmobile into a race track with spectators. I LOVE IT. lol
The pram race :')
Can we get a Davie episode? I need to know this guys story.
I think she mentioned on Patron that she is going to interview him for a Patron video
Agreed!
Marie looks fabulous & Anton is growing up fast.
Marie's and Anton's haircuts look fantastic. Annalise is very talented.
How much more talented can one man get. Michael your a star.
I know this will not be the most viewed video you ever make... but as a former playmobile fan boy who was bullied for carrying around the opera singer in the gold with the purple fan, this is my favorite video 😂
Marie's hair looks fantastic. Well done Annalise. 😁
That Playmobil collection is sublime. Davy just became even more appealing. Get in line people.
Marie is absolutely beautiful! She always has been, but with her new hair color she is radiant. Antoine is a beautiful soul. He is so well mannered and a joy to watch in the videos. He will one day continue Stephanie's journey with the chateau. Love and blessing to all.
very like his lovely Mother.
As children my sister and I turned our whole basement into a playmobil/lego/fisher price toy town. We set up roads and houses on our old dining room table, and created other towns on other tables. Truly it was a magical world of imagination! Watching you all put together the playmobil world was wonderful :)
What a wonderful memory! I remember how creative my children would get with their Legos too! I also remember stepping on little Lego piece booby traps when I would go into their rooms 😂
That is awesome, Ellen! Now that is what toys should be!
The pram racing track ... INSPIRED!!
"...they're racing towards a chasm!" LOL
Michael reminds me of a young Hugh Grant!
Oh, Marie's hair is stunning. The color really makes her beautiful blue eyes pop and sparkle!
This might be out of place, but have you ever thought of having a room dedicated to your collectibles of miniature sets? Can’t say I blame Antoine for not wanting all that work to be put away lol 😆 Once again Michael Potts blows us away by showing his culinary skills, looks delicious. And Marie’s hair looks gorgeous, well done Annalise.
You are all cute, but Antoine is the prince. So glad he is back.
Marie's hair looks beautiful!!!! What a fun afternoon!!! Davey is coming out of his shell- love the collection!!!
I just love Michael, he is a sweetheart such a breath of fresh air. What a menu Michael is so talented. I enjoy listening to him he has a lovely accent. Anton is growing up so fast. I love Maria‘s hair colour Annalise does a beautiful job. Everyone that comes to Lalonde is so talented and creative such an artistic community. Thank you Stephanie for another exceptional blog.💕🌈 from 🇨🇦 to all.
Really nice to see Annalise ❤️
💝💝💝🇸🇪
I didn't think Marie could become more beautiful yet she did! The color of her hair just brightens her lovely face. Fabulous video. I can't wait to see the chateau!
Im in love with Michael Potts soft voice, he is such a prince charming
I totally agree and his lovely smile
Yes what a nice voice, cute too lol
Oh Mikey has it going on😊👍
I wonder how long he has lived in the UK for...?
@@diannescott2551 He lives in Amsterdam currently
I've never seen adults play so intensely with children's dollhouse materials - and it is absolutely delightful. The idea that young men aspired to the dollhouse rather than the pirate ship is also delightful.
It’s not a doll house really. It’s like Lego. I used to have a farm house as a child 😂
It is wonderful to see Michael Potts back!!! Marie looks beautiful! It feels like a family reunion!
Doesn't it just!
I can not tell you how much I love the whole Playmobil event!
Michael seemed so calm cooking all those amazing things for everyone. All that food looked so good.
If I had to make all of that, I would have had several breakdowns😅 I was also in awe of how calm he was
I love how you entertain yourselves with activities at the chateau and not “going out” all the time. Your priorities are very well balanced.
wauw Annalise is a true hair goddess, amazing everytime she touches hair, its so so beautifull. Her hands , vision and art are the fountain of youth.
Marie is absolutely gorgeous! Her personality is as beautiful as she is.
I knew Marie's hair looked lighter in the Chateau Unwrapped episode. It looks so beautiful. Great job. A thought: if ever you have an Alice in Wonderland themed party Michael would be a perfect Mad Hatter. He just has that perfect off-beat charm, lol. Another Lalander with a multitude of amazing talents.
And Stef would make the perfect Alice.
Is Marie married to Michael Potts
@@chelleatjbmoe5915 No
@@chelleatjbmoe5915 she's married to the elusive Nick.
@@chelleatjbmoe5915 🥰Ruth is Michael Pott’s partner. She is a writer and prefers not to be filmed🥰
Nick, you lucky dog! It isn’t everyone who owns such a beautiful chateau and has a beautiful family as well. Life is good...
Doesn’t this illustrate the importance of adults continuing to play! Charming. Glorious food. Not forgetting to mention that tantalising glimpse of the medieval chateau. ❤️
Marie you look beautiful. I love the hair
Chateau LaLande definitely needs to put together a cookbook and put it up for sale. I am sure it would do quite well!
In the hospital, and just got out from getting my appendix out. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the distraction you are providing me! Thank you all so much!
Get well soon 🦚🦜🐇
Speedy recovery. Hope all went smooth. If undiagnosed, it can be quite serious. Hope you r Dr was on top of it early on. 💐🌺
@@barbibutton9619 all went well! I’m home now recovering. Really sore but I’m sure it will heal up in no time
Antoine was correct the Playmobil set should stay up for a day or two!
Marie’s hair was beautiful and she looked radiant. Antoine is a delightful young man, really happy to see them back.
One of the best vlogs...Michael Potts does South Africa proud
I can't believe you put all that together and then took it apart right away.
Marie looks gorgeous. Annalise is a true artist
Cant wait for the Lalanders Playmobil characters dress up Party episode!
I am so jealous... I dreamed of that Playmobil mansion when I was a kid. I remember visiting Harrods at Christmas with my family and looking as the display for ages! I had the piano set and the vintage car set. What a brilliant trip down memory lane!
LOL Michael having to set up buggy race🤣
Oh Im so jealous of you guys, making the Playmobil mansion 🥺Also glad to know I wasn't the only one who would keep the leaflets and look at all the Playmobil sets longingly! :P
Me too 😂💝🇸🇪
YES!! (keeping leaflets & looking at additional pieces) 😃💐
Marie’s hair looks beautiful! Michael’s bread and food looks delicious! Antoine is such a handsome and charming young man, and his hair looks great! Davy’s castle additions are amazing! I love this vlog, all your vlogs, and all of you in them! Its beyond comprehension, and Im so grateful! 💗💗. Thank you for feeding my soul. 💗
Of everything I enjoy about the Chateau Diaries, I love that gender, age, status or social expectations, doesn’t deter anyone from just being who they are and enjoying life. Life, love, laughter, but above all, acceptance ❤️ 💜 🤍💚💙
If Michael starts giving personal bread tutorials and cooking lessons....I will need to take out a loan! Great job, that looked luscious! I can't wait to show my grands the Playmobil table!
OMG!!! Selmar would have been laughing so hard at tests being done, I laughed when you said Stephanie, crying gladly😊😊😊. This video and history is awesome. Thank you for sharing!!!
Wow, an outing and a Chateau full of people! The good old days are coming back.
Michael’s a man after my own heart. I love garlicky hummus.
Marie and Antoine, you look wonderful! Annalise, you are a very talented hair stylist! Edit: I love that y’all had a playmobil afternoon. Reminds me so much of the George Bernard Shaw quote - We don’t stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing,
Just what was needed to change my mood---thank you all.
💝💝💝🇸🇪yes!
Davey is endearing. Exudes peace. That bread got me at the crust sound. Thanks so much for sharing.
The Victorian theme of Playmobil is just one of their most enjoyable themes that were produced from the company. The attention to detail, the accesssories- it really is truly spectacular to look at complete like this. Such a treat. 👏👏👏
Loved this! One of the unfinished rooms should be designated and renovated as a play room with the pool table, a large table for the play mobile or other toy work or a train set or for just cards or game playing, etc.
Davy is so precious 😊
Ah! Thé wonderful Analyse strikes again! Marie’s hair is stunning!
My son loved the Playmobil cowboys & I made him a desert set to play with them in, including mountains made out of egg boxes that we called the Free Mountain Range
Stephanie, I just realized why I am so in love with your VLOG. It’s like my college days, without the boyfriends/girlfriends we didn’t like and with enough money to use beautiful things! Love it!
Hello everyone 😁 Sending love and blessing to all the wonderful Lalanders 💞
Omg my daughter made that tik tok recipe 8 times in 2 weeks she loved it so much. 😆😆 it was so popular here you couldn't find a 'block' of feta anywhere. We were reduced to using feta crumbles. Lol Still good!
It look so good, i'm going to make that to💝🇸🇪
When Marie was getting her hair done, with a mask on, you could really see, that Antoine has her eyes 🙂 And... oh, my, Davy... What a collection!! I did not know this series from Playmobile (Belle Epoque?). Had I, I think, I would have collected it too 😂 I remeber, my friend had a huge pirate ship, and I was really jealous 😁
I should never watch you when I don’t feel well! I love LaLande! I love all the happiness there! God bless you!
Antoine, it should be named Chateau de la Brigadoon. It then is never truly gone!
Marie is beautiful and the hair color and style enhances her look. The bread is easy and delicious. I've made it though didn't have an interesting flour and it was excellent.
The Pram Racing....gave me a full on laugh! Loved this video!
i never had Playmobil. That is an impressive collection. My 5 year old daughter was in awe. :)
I LOVE Davey 🥰
Marie, the most beautiful mother and son.
I’ve never seen these. What fun! Love the little chef. The car. The pink patio umbrella. The... the...
Michael is so so handsome! And such a fine chef. Hugh Grant vibes 😍
I'm also a collector of vintage Playmobil and have spied the Playmobil mansion a few times on your vlog. I'm very much looking forward to this episode!! :-)
I’m with Antoine. The mansion needded to be there for show forever! Or a few days at least!😁 All that effort putting the pieces together...
What fun with all the parts to Davie's collection being taken out of their boxes. I agree with Antoine, it needs to be displayed somewhere for a few weeks each year. Michael's dinner looked scrumptious, wish I was there to partake.
So many kindred playmobile spirits in one room! Love it ❤️😍😂
You need to create a Lalonde cookbook...Please! This is an awesome vlog!
Davy, you are my spirit animal!
It's official, Davy is the ideal man. Playmobil what more do you need!!!!
Visiting LaLande has now gone to the top of my bucket list idc. 💙🥰
I am in total awe with what God has done for your community. So wonderful Stephanie!!!!!
Marie your new hair colour looks great !! 🔥
I thought there was only one kid in Lalande 😉 ♥️🌸💐🌻♥️🌻☕☕☕☕
Marie's eyes are so beautiful with her fresh new look!
That was so much fun loved seeing everyone’s inner child coming out to play :) Michaels cooking was wonderful . Antoine is such a sweetie , Maries hair was lovely , can’t wait to see everyone coming back to lalonde and all the new faces 😘😘
What a fun episode! Michael's dinner looks so good.
It's amazing that every time I watch this videos it's with a smile from ear to ear. They bring me so much joy! ❤️
Omg that Playmobil set was amazing a dream come true as a child 😮 loved the pram race 😂😂❤️
Liking the Playmobil left handed violinist! And I think that the guitarist on the bench is a folk musician busking. So much fun!!
Marie's new style looks fabulous. She is very beautiful. I love to see Stéphanie and Michael together, they have great chemistry!! 😀😀
Marie, you are beautiful anyway and the new hair color totally brightens your face!
Delightful playmobil setup; brings back good memories...Michael Potts you are just a total joy to watch!
