Most co-workers buy a cake on someone’s last day. Some of mine left me a bouquet of chicken nuggets and 9 boxes on my desk yesterday 😂

Eastern Iowa, you’ve been beautiful. You’ll forever have my heart 💜

Over 1,000 miles apart, but still celebrating my forever queen, best friend, and favorite lady! #HappyMothersDay

Kyle Brown was 54 when he passed away on Wednesday--12 days after he and his wife, Pamela, first noticed his symptoms. Pamela is grieving, but yesterday she told me she knows Kyle would want his battle shared to help others fighting for their lives. https://t.co/OQggay9LfF

CHECK THIS OUT: a brother-sister duo from Montezuma is making face shields for hospitals and clinics across Iowa. They’re donating their first 10 to an Eastern Iowa hospital today. We’ll give you a behind the scenes look at how they’re making them tonight on @KCCINews at 10.

What started out as a $50 donation from her sister on Wednesday became a $1,700+ drive orchestrated by Iowa native Nikki Mulhbauer to aid those impacted by the tornadoes in Tennessee. Tonight at 10 p.m. on @KCCINews, we'll show you where these bags will go and how you can help.

My move to Des Moines means I’ve switched accounts! No worries: I’m still that Florida girl slightly (extremely?) struggling to adapt to this Midwest world, but loving every second of it 🤷🏾‍♀️

Me, a Floridian still at heart despite living here for 2 years:

Bought flowers to bring to staples center. When the florist saw that I wanted purple and yellow she asked, “for Kobe?” I nodded. When she finished I asked what I owed her. she shook her head, handed me the flowers and said “it’s LA”. I almost cried. LAs love for Kobe is powerful

[Kayla @KaylaEJames]

My heart hurts. Prayers for his family, especially his young daughters 💔

[CBS Mornings @CBSMornings]

BREAKING: Kobe Bryant has died in a helicopter crash in California, @CBSLA reports.

The Los Angeles @Lakers superstar and @NBA legend was 41.

[Kayla @KaylaEJames]

I love you (and I guess we can add @ZachHanley2, too) more than chicken nuggets! 25 is so much better than years before because I’m blessed with friends like you two!

But yeah...I’m still getting my nuggets 🐔 🤷🏾‍♀️

[Emily Chavez @emilymchavez]

Make sure you wish @KaylaEJames Happy Birthday today! 🎉 Hope you’re eating lots of chicken nuggets ❤️

He refused to wear a coat and purposely left his snow boots back in Florida, but Pops James was his usual icon of a self yesterday.

Someone help me convince him to move here 😩

[Iowa DOT @iowadot]

1-17-2020 2:20 pm - We have nearly 700 trucks on the road right now doing everything we can to make travel safer for you.

Here's an idea - next time you see a big orange truck on the road, give the guy or gal behind the wheel a wave to say thanks!

[Kayla @KaylaEJames]

My new job keeps me in Iowa, which I’m ecstatic about! Deep down Momma James (aka MGJ) is excited too...but probably won’t come back to visit until June 😂😅

[Kayla @KaylaEJames]

@DaniCHurtado_ Thank you! And I’m so excited for you; Sarasota is amazing and I can’t wait to visit my family down there and catch you on tv!

Eastern Iowa, you’ve been beautiful. You’ll forever have my heart 💜

[Kayla @KaylaEJames]

@ashneighbor I’ll miss running into you! Good luck and continue to be amazing! I can’t wait to see what you do next 💜

[Kayla @KaylaEJames]

Me, 3 weeks ago in Florida, encouraging my parents to visit me in Iowa: “It’s been a pretty calm winter. Not too cold. You’ll be fine!”

Iowa—today, the morning my very Floridian parents arrive 🙃:

@ShannonMoudyTV @CaroRCummings “Little miss” is the one that throws me off anytime!

[Cameron Magruder @ScooterMagruder]

Patriots fans, do you want to talk about it?

[Nick Stewart @NStewWX]

Right on schedule, snow has started in Cedar Rapids as the evening commute gets underway. Expect slick roads this evening! #IAwx
