This Thanksgiving I'm grateful for so many people and things. Among them: The best travel buddy, the boy who can find adventure anywhere and the boy whose soundtrack is the "womp!" of a basketball no matter where he goes. May you and your turkeys have the best holiday.🦃🤎🧡

They left home young women and returned from serving in Vietnam heroes with stories to tell.

It's with tremendous excitement and gratitude I'm finally able to announce our KMBC Chronicle: To The Women Who Served will air Tuesday, December 16th at 7PM on KMBC 9.

It's time.

24 years ago today I walked into 1029 Central into the basement of the Lyric Theatre on my first day as a reporter for @kmbc9.bsky.social . It's been the most incredible & rewarding ride for which I'm forever grateful. Thanks for having me, having patience with me, trusting me & growing with me.❤️

Since it started feeling like summer it's nearly impossible to get this one out from under the net! 🏀

I'd love to hear what you all are doing now that we can really enjoy being outside!

It's time for @royals.com baseball in Kansas City!

I have wonderful memories of listening to games on the radio while working at the ABC affiliate in Peoria, IL. We'd grill & listen between shows on summer weekends.

What's your favorite part of the season?

What happens when your sister has an early morning game the Sunday after springing forward! Daylight Saving adjustments are real! Good luck to everyone struggling this morning. I feel you! @kmbc9.bsky.social

We've leaned on a lot of comfort food during this extended winter season! What's your go-to on a day like today? Also, where are you all seeing the best prices for groceries? (This was last night's dinner: Pot Roast with carrots & potatoes - and catsup, of course with bread and butter.)

The high should be near 60 degrees today! We're loving this weather & soaking up outdoor time. What have you been doing to embrace this false spring? @kmbc9.bsky.social
February 26, 2025 at 11:19 AM
It's ZERO right now! But - it will get warmer. Sometime. In the meantime, here's a picture of the tomato starts we're growing indoors in anticipation of our garden. 🍅What are you doing to "Think Spring" in this cold?

Good morning! We are live in New Orleans in front of the Crescent City Connection bridge over the Mississippi River under a blanket of fog. See you live on @kmbc9.bsky.social !

Scenes from New Orleans! This is such a unique and beautiful city with people to match!

Do you see the nod to KC in one of these pictures?

We’re live on @kmbc with all things Super Bowl 59!

Just some of the great people who keep this place running who you don't see on air on our most recent Red Friday!

We made it to Friday! Here's to a hot cuppa and a less eventful weekend ahead!

Another gratitude post! I had to be towed yesterday and couldn't have had a better Operator than Troy with who was kind, efficient and went the extra mile to make sure I was on solid ground before he left. Frustrating as this weather can be, it also brings out the best in so many!

Last night @kmbc9.bsky.social producer, Melody, got stuck. As she & I tried to shovel her out, a stranger stopped and asked if we needed help. Raytown's Jake Hilger saved the night! Thank you to all the Jakes! This is the essence of Kansas City!

I've seen the #viewfrommywindow trend on social media so here goes! This is the view from one of our windows at @kmbc9.bsky.social. The snow is blowing as is Old Faithful. What's the view from YOUR window? (If you post here please give me a 👍if I have your permission to share on air!)
