On Saturday, the whole Bernard Bunch was invited to Celine's house to celebrate her 13th birthday. Papa is Celine's Godfather, and every January we go celebrate the additional year together ... so here we are at the local flower shop, getting a beautiful bunch of posies for Celine and for her Mama ...
The flower lady was ever so nice with me (methinks she was secretly planning on adopting me but my Mama watches over me like a hawk so not much chance of that!) and gave me my own little bunch of posies ... which terrified me of course - Mama says I have yet to learn some social niceties for this kind of situation
Then off I went with the posies, thanking the nice lady furiously for her kindness towards me ...
.. then I landed in Celine's house and was immediately distracted by the hoards of new bits and pieces I had never seen before ...
things that no-body else ever seems in the slightest bit interested in, but me ..
tut tut, what a mess on this table ... let me tidy this up quickly whilst Papa looks at photo albums with Celine and her Papa Didier ..
Then we all had some dead yummy nosh - get a load of Thibaud's groovy mohican hair-do over at the end of the table there!
Ah, Celine and Papa, the two of them are crazy about each other ...
Isn't she a real cutie pie??
OI! Get yer mits off of my Papa!!!(just kidding ... look at the pair of love birds!!)
and here I am now with trendy Maude ... she is SO cool!!
and with Christine who looked after me very carefully and cuddlefully!!!
oooops - wind the clocks back a bit, we're back to Christmas now - here's Nathan with his brand new Nintendo DS game - does he look happy or does he look happy?????
Is there really any need for illustrative text for this photo?
Now believe it or not, Valerie and Laurent actually get on quite well, though its difficult to imagine given the enthusiasm conveyed in this wee piccie .... 
I do like him though, cos he smothers me in cuddles and kisses
I know, its hilarious isn't it???!!! 
There, I just KNEW my Mama could bring a smile back to your gorgeous little face Lena!!
My cousin Emeline and her Godmother Valerie, who is also Lena's Mama and my Auntie
A truly Bernard Christmas in Lucenay
This is me contemplating stabbing Mama with a silver fork
