my week in pictures

Happy Friday friends! Can you believe that this time next week it will be March!? It seems like just yesterday it was Christmas!! Anyways, Monday I was worried that the weekend would never get here, but thankfully I was proven wrong! Do you have instagram!? I love instagram! You can follow me @lyssadawson ^^ THIS is what I get to see when I volunteer on the weekends!

awkward and awesome

cardi/skinnies: Tjmaxx (store) , shirt: target (old), flats: target (similar), bracelet: Tiffany’s (similar) & AHS, belt: thrifted, earrings: the limited (store) Awkward – When your in a group and someone says goodbye to everyone, individually, but you.

If you were to visit me this morning, you would have seen a disheveled me. Bed head, mismatching p.j.’s on, no make-up, and my mascara definitely rubbed off and found refuge just under my eyes.

my week in pictures

Is it really 2 o’clock on Friday? This week went buy super fast, as I thought it would and I still have lots of homework to finish! But instead, I’ve been surfing the internet for the past hour… looks like we know where my priorities stand! On set yesterday with Pets on Parade, I’m not on tv this week but it sure was fun to help with the animals in the background! I’m addicted, I completed another baby blanket this week! You like my trusty crochet hook? It’s getting worn out! the only Valentine’s decor… Read More
