There are so many things in life to be happy about! Every day I try to celebrate what is rather than what’s not. I find it helps me build momentum and keep my positive attitude going strong! One of the things that makes me super happy in life is going to Knott’s Berry Farm with my kids and even solo! It’s just impossible for me to feel sad or down while I am there. This year,Knott’s PEANUTS Celebration welcomes fans of all ages to join Snoopy and the PEANUTS gang as they stage a park takeover with plenty of excitement and family-friendly fun starting January 27 and running daily through February 25. The park-wide celebration features a new Franklin-focused exhibit, plenty of new PEANUTS-inspired cuisine, a fun lineup of returning shows and photo ops that allow guests to step into the iconic Charles M.
