WOOD: A Warm Welcome To 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS Mornings

I was a little sad on June 12th, 2008 right around 4 pm.  I was in the last moments of my last day hosting Twin Cities Live.  In the year I worked on the show I had created a second family.  So when I decided to move over to 5 Eyewitness News Mornings, I was a little sad about leaving that family behind (even though they would only be a flight of stairs away).  Then with about 2 minutes to go in the show, I had a pleasant surprise.  A peak into just how fun my new family would be.  Art, Vineeta, Rusty and Patrick took the time to make a pretty heart warming video welcoming me to the show.  After watching that and before I had ever even walked into the newsroom, I knew that I had another, really fun, family I would be lucky enough to work with.  I’ve been doing 5 Eyewitness News Mornings for just a week now, but already I have fallen in love with the crew.  Rusty and Patrick make me belly laugh every single day, Art is always there ready to help when I have a question and Vineeta…well Vineeta is already my BFF.  I cannot tell you how many things we have in common.  Every day when we talk we’re amazed at similar our lives have been.  So I now I have three families in my life.  A girl couldn’t ask for more!
