Background Info

For those of you who are just following my blog...I want to give you some background information on what is going on in my life.
I am married to Ben Veloz, my high school sweetheart for 3 1/2 years now. We have 20-month-old twins, Analise and Antonio. They are the light of my life. They are so much fun right now. I swear, some of the things they come up with. They really are so smart, and so funny! I never knew kids this age could have such a sense of humor.
Ben is a 6th grade science teacher, here in Pahrump, NV. He is a great teacher, all of his students love him. He just recently finished his Master's degree and is currently taking a couple classes to keep moving over on the pay scale. :)
I have worked in public relations for more than 5 years now. Before having the twins I commuted to Las Vegas for two years working at a marketing firm. Now, I have the ability to freelance for them from home, which is wonderful! It allows me to spend time with my kids and watch them grow up, and still make a living so I can continue to feed them. I work on two accounts, one for a regional law firm, and the other is this new start-up company that I am very excited about. It is called Win 4 Charity. It is a revolutionary new company that uses the World Wide Web to connect donors to hundreds of charities nationwide. Not only does it give donors an opportunity to give to charity but in the process it allows them the chance to win some amazing prizes. Talk about a new way of fundraising!! You really should check out the web site. You will be truly amazed, I promise! Go to www.Win4Charity.com. I promise you won't be disappointed!

Fun with the Parents

My parents have been here visiting since last Saturday and let me tell you, it has been a blast. So far, Ben and I have taken my parents to the Win 4 Charity launch party, which was a blast. Mom and I had a few cocktails and we socialized with the people I work with. I had a good time. Of course, people telling me I looked nice didn't hurt, either!
Anyway, Sunday - my parents, Ben, the kids and I all went to Vegas to Bonnie Springs. It is a like a little zoo. It is so much fun and the kids had a great time feeding the goats out of their hands. Since then we have mostly just played around the house. Antonio has taken to his Papaw especially and Analise gives both a lot of attention but definitely likes to sit on Mimi's lap. I think they are having fun. I let you know about all our adventures after they leave on Saturday.
