The assignment this week for my 365 Project is color, which you know is one of my main passions out here on my In Hot Pursuit of Color blog. Today, there were just too many choices of color, so my extras that I just had to share them out here.
Today we were in Wadena visiting a family member and saw many amazing murals everywhere. This one specifically was huge!!
Here are some close ups of it.
I was hanging out with my youngest while my oldest was getting her hair beautified. He went to the post office and even the grocery store with me. I tell you, we certainly didn’t do exciting things, but he does it with a good attitude. 
I had the chance to do a photoshoot with a fellow photographer and her family. It was a beautiful day and the family was a blast to photograph. We captured some really fun pictures of the family that day! On top of it, it was one of the last beautiful days before the temps dropped down and the sun just didn’t feel as warm.
This one was fun, the dad had thought it would be fun to have the rest of the family posed and have his youngest daughter run through the scene. This is what she loves to do, so it wasn’t hard to convince her. It was pretty fun to get that shot!
Along with a number of other amazing photographers, I was able to do a photo journalist shoot for a girls retreat that our church was sponsoring. It was so much fun to capture all the girls while they experienced all that the retreat had to offer them.
The girls had spa treatments that involved getting their hair done, nails, makeup, and massage. All while listening to an awesome band and enjoying yummy treats.
After the spa treatments the girls moved onto the next phase which involved a fun fashion show where six girls were given a makeover and then shared their new styles on the runway.
As challenging as low light settings are, when the lighting happens to cooperate, you can get some fun shots.
After the show and few other things there was a time of worship, after I snapped a few shots, of the band and then took off for the night. They still had many moments planned for the girls that consisted of more worship and a great message and then the pizza party.
I returned the next morning for the prize drawings and a few more games to start the day. 
This look she is making…it is because she is very afraid of the next challenge.
Another skit and then moving on to the worship and message part of the afternoon.
It was time for me to take off for home. I would have loved to have heard Adam’s message. It was certainly off to a good start when I slipped out.
I pray the girls had a great time and drew closer to the Lord over the amazing weekend!
