Love Mike's nonchalant goodbyes at the end of your vlogs! I remember many years ago, Mike didn't enjoy being on camera ... but you got sick during a vlogging month, and he gallantly took over the camera and we all went on a walk with Woof. Seems forever ago and only yesterday, all at the same time!

[@balisandra94]

Oh i remember that! 🥺♥️

[@vortexkate]

Love that you showed us some real life parenthood with a glimpse of the toddler meltdown! And somehow you do it without overexposing River on the internet. I really appreciate you talking about your struggle with fertility too. I’ve always loved your honesty, be it regarding products or parenting. Thank you x

[@charmaine2431]

glad youre changing the wallpaper of that room, the old wallpaper kinda looks like hehehe like a sex dungeon type room lol. anyway, great you’re changing it!! 😊

[@jennys.945]

Fleur's eyes wandering over to naked Mike is PRECIOUS.

[@roxysimmons]

Jenny S. I thought the same. So sweet 😍

[@lacrosse.captain]

Wow, the light show is spectacular. Ngl, I kinda want a light up balloon, now.

[@FleurDeForce]

They were kind of mesmerising!

[@abiw7499]

Student nurse here! The compeed is actually a pretty good idea! We normally recommend to run under cold water and wrap with cling film. Just be sure not to use cream or lotion on it! X

[@nabihaf1]

Omg I am so jealous of River's balloon !! (And I'm 30!)

[@alexjoanes2896]

I'm going to a light show on Tuesday and I'm kinda hoping they've got them there for me. And I'm nearly 60!!! 😂😂😂

[@dawnforlife]

Hahahah! Best comments! 😍😍😍

[@fionafrazer8820]

Well - that made this homesick Brit cry her eyes out! Miss the Christmas spirit in the UK so much. River did pretty well - what a trooper! You and Mike have absolutely made it feel more and more like Christmas every time I watch. Thanks!!

[@nskkhan]

It’s soo cute how happy Mike gets when he says “get ready for the jingle”.. And I was laughing when you said Mikes getting naked and no one wants to see that.. there must be girls saying I do I do 🤣🤣

[@tammimalotky8824]

Your house must be absolutely huge! It's fun watching all your renovations! All the lights at the Palace!! Amazing!

[@JasmineGellatly]

Your vlogmas videos (and your vlogs in general) are such a comfort to watch. I've got a job interview tomorrow that I've been crying and worrying about all day, and watching this totally calms me ✨

[@felixfelicis3459]

Good luck to you for the interview! You will surely do great!

[@FleurDeForce]

Thank you! Good luck for the interview! ❤️❤️

[@JulieM-bx1ou]

Good luck xx

[@JasmineGellatly]

@@FleurDeForce thanks Fleur 💕

[@AmandaDawn87]

Good luck!

[@Jolly4Holly]

Fleur: Riv is a little grumpy... Mike: I wonder where she gets that from? 😏 Fleur: You! Clearly 😌 🤣😅

[@aiesha161]

I say this with purest intentions..Fleur, you and Mike are an adorable couple. You laugh together you stay together 🙂

[@Gigglypeach]

Aw yay I worked on some of the artwork for the Blenheim Palace trail, i'm so glad you guys enjoyed it ❤️ 😁

[@elsol217]

I love mike’s little running comments in the background, gold😝

[@heatherj9029]

I always fly after Thanksgiving in the US and go to the Palace Christmas light show after in the beginning of December. This hurts since I miss it so much this year. The food, the lights, the music. While I miss it so much, this was so nice to see you enjoy it. Thank you for sharing.

[@paisleypeach44]

Oh how magical! I love it! What a memorable evening for River. Merry Christmas 🎄

[@hattie2525]

Love the palace at Christmas, so beautiful! I know it's a bit invasive but a house tour would be amazing, purely so I can get my head around the layout, I'm so nosey!

[@radbu1075]

It seems like a maze!

[@anad05]

@@radbu1075 They had Alice in Wonderland last year and it was beautiful!!!

[@VictoriaJoly]

Fleur’s hair looks gorgeous! I can’t get a rdv with my favourite hairdresser before Christmas 😭 serious hair envy ❤️

[@littlemusic4x]

Such a nice festive vlog. River is just the cutest!

[@lauranel-boland531]

You and Mike are just hilarious 😂. Him telling you off about using the comped plasters. Classic 😂🤣

[@mxnja]

im soo early idk what to do rather than tell u how excited i am for this vlog hahaha and dancing to the jingle🎄🎄

[@Joysteib]

The Christmas light show at the palace was simply beautiful!!! The tea with the cupcakes ...hmmmm look so yummy!! So nice to see since all our annual festivities have been cancelled due to Covid. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@marafeenchen1478]

This was such a nice vlog! I could feel your excitement through the screen and it got me a little more into the Christmas spirit, which I have been seriously lacking this year! Hope your finger is doing better!

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

What an amazing light show beautiful . Auw those blisters hope they heal quickly enough . Love the colour in the hall 🥰. Take care .

[@anad05]

Blenheim Palace is just amazing!! Went there twice already. They had Alice in Wonderland exposition last year and it was fantastic. I hope they will bring it again, because if the adults enjoyed it, imagine the children!

[@annebkgardmadsen983]

Hi there. Danish Pædagog here... been working with little children for the past 25 years. Good sleep generates good sleep, lack of sleep makes cranky children. And I think River is a cool kid... handling disappointment (no pink horses 💗) late in the evening after a lot of impressions is a lot to handle for a little kid. December is a very magical but very eventful month for children... parents need to give a lot of understanding kisses, and sometimes to take deep breaths while repeating " children is a gift"... believe me 🥰🤗❤ but I don't doubt that you and Mike are doing great. And she is a intelligent, cute little girl with an opinion of her world (and we like those girls... we need clever women, with high self worth, who are not afraid to take charge in the future 😁) merry Christmas 🎄🎅❤🤗🥰🥰❤❤✌

[@kittenamy1]

Blenheim looks so gorgeous all lit up. I’ve been to Kew for their Christmas light show but now I must add Blenheim to my list!

[@RevolvingDoorsSuck]

The compeed is probably the best things you can do! Covering it up away from oxygen actually helps the pain too 😬😬😬

[@RebeccaLately]

The light show was incredible!!

[@keithbates598]

What a nice vlog! The afternoon tea and all the pretty Christmas lights was really special. Thank you Fleur. I like River's baby having her own car seat! Cute! Joan Bates

[@lowriwilson]

I am loving these vlogs they make me smile. I have a strong willed sassy toddler too xxx

[@MissToDo]

The pink room really has some vibes🤣

[@ladycake1515]

That is the first PJ ive seen that I actually think looks good!

[@heidishome2937]

Thank you so much for sharing. No lights here. Everything seems to be canceled. However you brought Christmas cheer. 🤗

[@heatabayko]

The fact that you bought a light up balloon is so relatable! 😂

[@danadpt2012]

Loving your Christmas vlogs!

[@rosieplume35]

What a beautiful place for holiday lights!!

[@kristinabraly]

Cutest intro!!

[@JamesGriffin1997]

Really loved this vlog! I remember when you went to Blenheim Palace with Becky and there was that weird animatronic person moving the sheets and that guy that wanted a photo haha

[@ellieboa]

the light show looked awesome! and good work on the wallpaper!

awwwwww i wish i booked a light show that looks sooo good 💗🎄💗🎄

[@KarlaC233]

Riv has Mike's whole heart 🥰

[@phoebe261]

Such a delightful vlog! Wreath making courses have done me dirty before - I got blisters from trying to wrangle the wire, so I feel for you!

[@AmandaDawn87]

aww we had blenheim booked but had to cancel as we are in tier 3 now. We went a couple years ago and loved it x

[@casiemartin815]

My favorite Vlogmas! ❤️

[@Candyangel63]

Two watches, Fleur😆 Epic!

[@PiaffePiaffe]

Such a beautiful light show! 💕💕💕

[@mrskfk6492]

Loved this video! 🎄 We did something similar at Hever Castle in Kent and my three year-old daughter was mesmerised by the carousel, though we went on with her. Pretty sure she wouldn’t have been so happy doing it alone! Your house must be a dream to grow up in. River will have so much fun playing hide and seek with her friends in a few years! It’s magical 💫 PS I feel like my life would be complete if I had one of those light-up balloons...

[@OWB-ml2ux]

We live in New Zealand and it doesn’t get dark until at least 9.30pm, so if we want to go to see any Christmas lights it makes for a very late evening!! Still worth it though. 😉 I actually envy your shorter days around this time of year. 💜💝🎄

[@AJ-fb8si]

I’ve been waiting for this!!😍😍

[@triciamonahan]

So magical ✨What a beautiful Christmas event at Blenheim Palace. So wonderful to be able to enjoy events again. Sadly here in Canada all our events are cancelled, but with a vaccine rolling out, fingers crossed we can enjoy a more normal Christmas by next year.

[@flemiac]

So festive . Love watching the vlog, was wondering about the two watches ... thought it was a new trend 😂... I’m the same go in & out with Apple Watch ( the charging is a pain) .

[@niqcolelombardo3001]

Watching this in my ⭐ pj's and star blanket! 🤣🤩👋💗🙏

[@Diorella_scent]

Lovely thank you Fleur. I am English but married an Australian, and even after all of these years Christmas just isn’t right here. I’ve tried to make it like England, I’ve tried to make it Australian, and nothing works for me. I really miss a good and proper English Christmas. The lights were lovely and thank you for sharing your trip. Big hugs from Australia 🇦🇺

[@LauraJoyMaker]

Best vlogs ^^ Love you guys !!

[@lizfawcett2525]

Loving your vlogmas ❤❤❤❤

[@ravercat4]

I would love to see the light show.

[@literallyheather]

I love dry water crackers too!!

[@ClaireDeLune2848]

When you showed the half finished red wallpaper room, my mind jumped to the scene in The Shining where the creepy kid pops out and starts yelling "REDRUM!" Very cheering Christmas thoughts, I know lol. It's going to look much nicer with fresh paint!

[@VeerrZ]

Thank you for the lovely video! Can you please tell me where you got the star print PJs from? or do you have any other tips for comfy but beautiful sleepwear?

[@paulaalisoncummings7688]

Does anyone else spend all day waiting for Fleurs vlogmas to go up or is it just me ? 😂😂😂

[@webaholicsweet]

Thank you, thank you for the ready for the jingles, actually repeat the video for check ready for the jingle im gilty, thank you so much for this video! uuujuuu bring the christmas now!! im jingle bells jingles bells with frank sinatra voice on my head, im feel so festive!

[@makaylajoye]

That looks SO festive! Such a fun family outing!

[@sammygee87]

I love the light trail at Blenheim, it is utterly magical 💫 Also, do you not have blinds in your bedroom? I can only sleep in pitch black! x

[@elizabethrincon1908]

Ahh, this makes me miss the UK so much!

[@PeacherLiz]

I've been trapped in New York since March. My heart hurts watching this 😭😭😭😭😭

[@TheAninas]

Such a wholesome vlog 💖

[@mauranoonan8951]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful place!

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

Lights are beautiful

[@TheSophiiieee]

What a magical evening! So many of my friends have gone to these lights, I went to more local ones tonight! Loving these vlogs❤️ To anyone else reading this, I hope youre having an amazing weekend?? Stay safe whilst seeing your family and friends!! Remember to keep smiling, lots of love a small time KZbinr trying to spread positivity❤️❤️

[@chichi51208]

Where is your gorgeous coat from Fleur? Loving your vlogmas - have been watching you from the start! 💕x

[@karenbaker1979]

I have never been to the light show at Blenheim Palace, and after seeing this I HAVE to go next year. I love how festive it was!

[@FleurDeForce]

It’s just magical!

[@amieet]

Oooh I wanna go to Blenheim! I wanted to go this year but we’re tier 3 currently and it’s a bit far for me to justify. I’ve done Westonbirt and Longleat a few times, they’re always lovely! :)

[@kayjhoselin]

Great vlog 💗💗💗

[@EmilyBoltz]

You guys in the UK are doing it right - the US not so much. The palace was beautiful!

[@emilysmith2784]

I’m interested to know what you are doing with the stripped walls before you paint them? Our walls were ruined like yours when we removed the paper. Don’t know what to do with them... plasterers are so expensive

[@AJ-fb8si]

What foundation do you use so pretty!!!

[@catherinelawler8125]

I had afternoon tea at blenheim Palace for my birthday this year 😊😊

[@katie_6864]

Fleur next time you go to Blenheim I'd recommend going into Woodstock for a meal rather than staying on site. It's the cutest town ever and only a short walk from the palace. There's a place called The Woodstock Arms - super cosy restaurant/pub with amazing food. Get tickets for the palace next time too!

[@beccas9783]

That pj has your name on it! Lol!

[@Courtneyeli]

I kinda love the pink wallpaper

[@suzannewhite825]

I want a light up balloon. They look amazing

[@ellenevatiernan631]

Have a lovely weekend in London! Xx 💗💗

[@ridinreiners]

Love your earrings with the hearts. Where are they from?

[@ilona134]

I do the same with comped any blister hands arm or feet

[@meena9508]

Love the vlogs. Where is your sleeping suit from

[@ALLTHINGSPINK20]

London probably will be moving to Tier 3 , so restaurants will be shut for dining in.

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Thank you for the video.

[@elainehoward8822]

Hi Fleur and Mike, That light show looked so beautiful. We looked after our granddaughter last Friday night, the little monkey would not settle, I read her books, she listened to an audiobook, but it was still way after 10pm before she finally went to sleep, and we could sleep. 6:30am she was up as singing at the top of her voice (Emma just turned 4 by the way) grandad took her home at lunch time, and at 3, we were given a real dressing down from my daughter and her hubby. Apparently Emma was crying to go to bed, she didn’t want to go out for dinner, and kept taking her clothes off to put her pjs on. So I know your pain Fleur I really do. Have a lovely time in London both of you. Stay safe though ☃️🎅🏻🎄🎁🧑‍🎄☃️🎅🏻🎄🎁🧑‍🎄☃️🎅🏻🎄🎁🧑‍🎄

[@xxGuItArGiRLxx89]

They are so lucky to have you. ❤ I have an almost 2 yr old and no mum to help me.

[@femmefits]

Sad that you're getting rid of the red room of pain :p

[@asunbeam5479]

Obsessed with those pajamas! Where are they from??

[@katyward1895]

Adeline Rhea they look the same as mine and they are by Chelsea Peers I think

[@MarieClaireMonterey]

I love Blenheim Palace. Although not sure if I ever visit the UK again after Brexit. :(

[@explorevintage7404]

Burn blisters need to breath or you will get an infection. You need to take the plastic off your fingers for a couple of hours at least and just put them on when they need to be protected like when washing dishes.

[@chrissisunshinelover6105]

Putting compeed plasters on your burns sounds genius to me (no medical training whatsoever). Wouldn't have thought to do that!

[@allysonroyston9671]

Fleur when did you apply for tickets to see Blenheim lights? I would love to see them. Thanks Fleur x

[@FleurDeForce]

Hey! I bought them a few months ago when they first released them, I’m actually not sure if they still have them available! X

[@allysonroyston9671]

@@FleurDeForce How early Fleur did they come out if you can remember? Yes believe they do but only in Jan. Prefer before Xmas. We don’t live in the south. Xx

[@buda2049]

That was amazing thank you for sharing ❤️ Aloe Vera will help cooling the burn and speeds healing with no mark( my experience 😊)

[@jonieanthony3991]

Good job mike wearing a mask. Very pretty show thanx

[@meadhbhgriffin]

Yay 😁

[@janetclark7300]

You should have put Elizabeth Arden eight hr cream on your burns chicken xxx

[@FleurDeForce]

Ooh yes that’s a good idea! Didn’t even think of that’

[@cobalong]

It must be so much more convenient having young children see Christmas lights in the UK, compared to Australia, because the sun doesn't go down here until atleast 9pm and that's usually way too late for kids to start getting hyped up by lights!

[@FleurDeForce]

Omg yes I can imagine! 🙈 it gets dark around 3.30 here 😂

[@cobalong]

@@FleurDeForce Maybe our upside is that the sun is up longer to dry washing or something?! God, I'm old... 👩‍🦳
