Celebrate the New Peanuts 3D Movie and Snoopy’s Birthday! #HappyBirthdaySnoopy
Happy Birthday Snoopy! Our favorite Peanuts character, that fun-loving and hilarious dog we all know and love will be celebrating his birthday on August 10. As you all know my family is obsessed with the Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang, and all things Snoopy- so August 10 doesn’t go unrecognized in our house. Charlie Brown’s sidekick Snoopy was a huge part of everyone in my house’s childhood – regardless of how many years ago that was, and when his birthday comes around we all get a little nostalgic.
Although the Peanuts comic strip actually began running in newspapers in October of 1950, it was later revealed that our favorite beagle’s birthday was celebrated on August 10. A series of comic strips running in the paper in 1968 celebrated Snoopy’s birthday for the first time, and August 10 was later named his official birthday and was celebrated in the animated movie “Snoopy Come Home.” If only we could all age as gracefully as Snoopy!
This summer Snoopy’s birthday is extra special though, because it brings us one day closer to the all new Peanuts 3D Movie premiere from 20th Century FOX that we have all been impatiently waiting for. Snoopy and his pals Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, and Pig Pen will be making their big-screen debut this Fall in just three short months, on November 6 2015. The countdown is on!

Like most of you we have been super busy this summer, but when I told the kids that August 10 was Snoopy’s birthday – they insisted on doing something special for their favorite dog’s big day, and decided that a Peanuts movie marathon and some snacks were in order. My nephew actually wanted to get Snoopy a present and mail it to him – I think I have managed to talk him out of it … for now.
