For the last twenty years, life has been everything but peaceful for the Beaumonts. Catherine and Jacques look after their wonderful family, a blended family living happily and cheerfully together, but things aren't always that easy! Three generations of characters take us on some pretty wacky adventures, sharing the laughter and tears of being a family today. First there are the parents, Mr. and Mrs. Beaumont, and their friend Reine. Then come the kids. Not to forget the twins, the youngest of the young adults, with their often complicated love lives. Last but not least, the new generation is peeking out, with Fred and Nourredine's tumultuous daughter Carla, and Audrey and Julien's daughter Marie, whose love interests are as stable as a weathervane on a windy day!
