Looks like Michal had a blast with Team 14A at the annual 7th Street Casino Golf Tournament. This tournament benefits Heartland Honor Flight — a KC nonprofit that honors America’s veterans by sending them on a Memorial Tour through Washington D.C. Thanks for letting us be a part of your amazing day!! #heartlandhonorflight #veterans #7thstreetcasino #advertising #kc @outfrontmediausa
This was Roy's shirt, the hero of my book, "Gift of Hope: Finding Faith Behind Barbed Wire". His story as a #pow. The purpose of the #heartlandhonorflight was to honor the veterans of World War II and #veterans of other foreign wars. But he always said he felt honored to be in the presence of so many others who gave so much. It's not just about the picnics. Honor our veterans this Memorial Day. #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #honorflight #wwi #wwii #ww2 #worldwar2 #veteransofforeignwars #veteran #prisonerofwar #prisoncamp #freedom #writer #amwriting #writingcommunity #instagramwriters
Blessed and thankful to speak at the Heartland Honor Flight reunion Thursday night at the Plaza library. The program takes Veterans to D.C. to see the memorials built in their honor. It’s made possible by community donations. @kmbc9news is a proud sponsor. #heartlandhonorflight @kcwetv #veterans #military #honorflight #honorthem #rememberthem
From a Soldier holding his dying friend in his arms, to kids thanking Veterans who fought for them before they were born, the Heartland Honor Flight never ceases to amaze. Join us during all our shows Thursday on @kmbc9news and @kcwetv as we follow our local Veterans to Washington D.C. to see the Memorials built in their honor, and learn why the best way you can say thank you is to help continue this noble program. #heartland #honor #honorflight #heartlandhonorflight #military #veterans #service
Always gotta get a group shot of all our Heartland Honor Flight Veterans, and everyone who makes the program possible! @kmbc9news #honorflight #heartlandhonorflight

💙⚡️💙 TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY 💙⚡️💙 Same shirt - 5 months apart. I know the difference isn't huge, but I've enjoyed 4 birthdays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, our anniversary, 2 concerts and multiple road trips with steady progress. I've lived my life eating the things I enjoy and still losing weight! I'm ok with this small visual difference though, because this is not just a physical journey - it's a balanced lifestyle! Before I changed my lifestyle, I needed a nap to make it through the day (sometimes more than one 😴), my stomach hurt all the time, I had a headache 75% of the time and I was not very pleasant to be around. Now, I have more energy, I'm in a better mood 90% of the time (I have a preteen boy and a drama queen to live with - I'm not perfect 😂), my skin is better and (TMI guys... look away now) my cycle is much more regular and PMS is almost non-existent! I've got a long way to go, but this is a great start... especially with all the *STUFF* we had going on!
Recently, I had the privilege of attending my 3rd Heartland Honor Flight, where KC Veterans are sent to Washington DC to see the memorials built in their honor. Join us tomorrow on all our shows on @kmbc9news and @kcwetv as Photojournalist Tim Twyman and I tell stories of hope, courage, and inspiration... and find out how you can help send even more Veterans on this trip of a lifetime... free of charge. It’s a small price to pay for the heavy price they paid for our freedom. #heartland #heartlandhonorflight #veterans #military #army #navy #marines #airforce #reserves #nationalguard

You could not have wiped that smile off his face yesterday! What an incredible experience for all of these veterans! The amount of love and respect shown for them in DC and at home in KC was unbelievable. I am so proud to call him my dad and my hero! #heartlandhonorflight #honorflight #usmc #veteran
What a special night...I think we enjoyed it as much as he did! ❤️🇺🇸 #honorflight #heartlandhonorflight
