"Four stitches and a black eye later... Don’t want a rematch! Oh well, just another event-filled weekend at the Nichols household."

"I’ve worked for more than a decade toward this dream — from high school at College Park to Lubbock, and even Alabama (Roll Tide).
This news is bittersweet. My last day with KENS 5 is at the end of this month. San Antonio, you have been the biggest blessing. I truly love this city and everyone at KENS.
I especially want to thank every family who trusted me to tell their stories, oftentimes during the most unimaginable moments of their lives. I will carry those stories with me forever."
