September was a fun month up in Comox with a birthday girl turning 3! We had a nice family day with gifts and the beach followed by of course dinner and cake.
Its great that my daughter and family live so close to the beach that we can just take an afternoon walk and be there. Nothing like balloons on the beach in the sunshine. 
Then on the weekend there was a gathering at a petting farm in Coombs followed by a day at the Black Creek Pumpkin Fest. The birthday party was so much fun and the kids all had fun checking out the animals and getting to ride a pony around the arena. This was followed by lunch and a hay wagon ride along the fence line of the property.
This was a great place to bring kids from a wide range of ages. There were chickens, pigs, emus donkeys and so much more.
The kids loved going for rides around the ring on the horses. Leaders carefully guided them around while the kids smiled.
Was great to be with family and friends of the birthday girl. It was a good place to bring your own picnic and sit and eat. I hope we can meet up here again as a family as it is half way between the two towns we live in.
The next day was the Pumpkin Fest that we go to every year. Another fantastic place with animals for the kids to check out. The highlight though is the corn maze.
It always fills my heart when I can be together with all seven of my little grandchildren. They bring so much joy into my life.
Then there is the hay ride. Even though it was pouring with rain the kids had a great time. Thankfully once we were finished with the maze and ride they have a lovely place indoors with music and good food.
The yearly tradition of attending the Corn Maze in Black Creek has been happening now for three or four years. It is definitely work the trip up island.
Three days of family fun, a great way be spend the fall season!
