Local Girls Get Early Christmas Surprise
Two students at North Todd Elementary received a big Christmas present a little early. And it was an experience they'll never forget.

We're Matthew's Uncle and aunt, and we are so thankful that Matthew came home safely after serving his fourth tour in Iraq. We're also thankful to WBKO for allowing everyone to witness this very special event. God truly does answer prayer.

We have been without electric service for several days because of the ice in Oklahoma. I really needed something to help me remember what this time of year is all about. This video brought back the Christmas spirit and reminded me of all the good things I take for granted. Thank you for your service to our country. God Bless and Merry Christmas.
