YAY! The Peanuts gang! I love each and every one of 'em!

My kids were introduced to the Peanuts Gang for the first time last year. They now have a couple books and have seen several videos and LOVE the humor! It has brought back many memories for DH and I and we were saying just the other night that today (in cartoon world), there would be no quoting of scripture as there is in A Charlie Brown Christmas and in order to spare a child's feelings and be politically correct, there would be no relentlessly insulting Charlie Brown (blockhead).

We have a yellow lovebird named Woodstock too!

Gotta love Linus and his blanket!
or how Sally calls him her "Sweet Baboo"

I'm surprised no one remembered this video, commissioned by Gray Charles...

Both were compiled by the Finnish video wizard Katya...

I have read several reviews of this book in the past few weeks, and they are all positive (although for different reasons). Check out Slate.com and AVClub.com for slightly different takes! (BTW, parts of AVClub can be NSFW and/or offensive in general.)

I have that album! Yes, that's right, album!

Christmas bells, those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to those on earth
And goodwill to man.

Oh I remembered but didn't want to spoil your fun

besides YouTube was down most of yesterday
