Manchester Pumpkin Days

The little community of Manchester, just outside of Arkadelphia had fall festival of sorts a couple of Saturdays ago.  It was the perfect sized event for Asa.  The 4H kids manned game booths, there was a pony ride, a hayride, bouncy castle and pumpkis too. 


This was Asa favorite game.  Go Fish.  The best part of the tug of war between Asa and the fish on the other side.  I think he must have played this game 6 or more times.



There was a big horse and a small pony to ride.  Given the choice, Asa wanted to ride the big horse.



He really wanted to get his face painted and chose a black spider. 


Then he decided he wanted a white spider with "blue-green eyes", just like him.


We rode on a covered wagon for the hayride and there were about 6 tween aged boys on there with us.  Asa thought they were so cool and so funny.  He had a great time listening to and joining in on their coversations.


Mommy and Asa on the hayride.  Notice his fingers.  He's been doing this for a couple of weeks now. 
We have no idea why and when asked, he can't explain it either.  
Needless to say, it makes using his hands quite difficult.
