[ohanafamily]

where is everyone this morning?

 

[ohanafamily]

Hey everybody, look at my countdown timer... less than 40 days... not even a great flood could stop me now...

 

[s&k'smom]

Yeah Ohanafamily on your countdown. Our receipts for our air travel arrived yesterday and it really was a kick to see them. Of course we have to wait six months!!!!

 

[ohanafamily]

Yes, but you are staying at the Poly, are you going to do the Louau? Tonga Toast at the Kona Cafe', Dinner at Ohanas...

Actually, when we were there they had a Chocolate Dragon (named Pete in the Kona Cafe') He was quite rude to Nieceosaurus; she wanted to talk to him, but he wouldn't give her the time of day....

 

[s&k'smom]

Umm I think we'll be at Kona at least once and we are doing the HDD instead of Luau. I printed out pictures of the pool for my son and he got so excited. I just can't wait to stroll around at night listening the the Poly music. Especially today, it's cold, rainy and dark out.

Nepho, I am sending you a PM.

QOTD: When I was little, I really liked Hong-Kong Fooey (sp?). I also liked Deputy Dawg. Do any of you remember that show. I have never known anyone who remembers it.

I'm off to make lunch....hotdogs anyone???? All-beef Hebrew National's, they are really yummy!!!

 

[ohanafamily]

Deadheadbelle, Hong Kong Phoey, Just another Super Guy, Hong Kong Phoey, quicker than the human eye...I loved that show; he was such a goof. I never really got in to Deputy Dawg though...Funny enough...

I just heard from a friend of mine that his step son was driving last Sunday and had an accident. he lost control of his car and demolished a sedan killing 3 people. the kid is a good kid, wasn't drinking or anything. It was a rainy night and he lost control of his car...here is a link to the story (on the front page of today's newspaper. I will also post it in a quote so you don't have to register. The kid is really torn up, and he just lost control.

Church mourns 3 in Fairview crash

1 teen in Easter tragedy was sister of girl hurt in '02 Terrell bus accident


09:13 AM CDT on Tuesday, April 13, 2004


By JENNIFER EMILY and TIM WYATT / The Dallas Morning News



A day after celebrating Easter with a joyous evening concert, members of Richardson's Canyon Creek Baptist Church gathered to sing in the sanctuary once more Monday night.


Ronald Christensen This time, though, they came to remember three friends killed in a car crash on their way home from Sunday's musical service.

Ronald Christensen, 48, a deacon at the church, and his 13-year-old daughter, Rachel, died at the scene of the crash in Fairview, just south of McKinney's city limits.

Rebecca Foster, 13, of Fairview died hours after being taken by helicopter to Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas. Mr. Christensen's wife, Elizabeth, 47, was released after treatment at North Central Medical Center in McKinney.

The Foster family has struggled with tragedy before. Rebecca's older sister, Christina, was hurt in a June 2002 bus crash near Terrell that killed four people and injured more than a dozen others as they headed toward a church summer camp in Louisiana.


Rachel Christensen Monday, Christina was expected to testify about the injuries she suffered in a civil trial connected with the accident. Rebecca and Rachel planned to attend the trial with Christina and other family members. A mistrial has been declared in that case because of the accident.

"This is just tragic," said David Schiller, an attorney who represents the Foster family in the lawsuit and is a friend of the Christensen family.

"What can you say to people who were in the same waiting room at the same hospital less than two years ago with their other daughter?" Mr. Schiller said Monday. "This has been difficult for them."

The mistrial was declared at the request of Mr. Schiller, who asked that the Foster family not be forced relive one tragedy while mourning another.


Rebecca Foster Rebecca and Rachel had planned a sleepover Sunday night at the Fosters' home, less than a mile from the crash, said Fairview Police Chief Granver Tolliver Sr.

Both families attended the Easter cantata at the Richardson church. Afterward, the girls went with the Christensens, who stopped by their house for Rachel to pick up clothes before heading to Fairview.

Just minutes from the Fosters' home, Mr. Christensen turned onto Country Club Road from State Highway 5. At the same time a 17-year-old Allen High School student driving on Country Club Road lost control of his sport utility vehicle as it approached a stop sign at the intersection, Chief Tolliver said. The two vehicles collided, and the impact of the crash sliced the Christensens' sedan in half.

Charles and Ruth Foster were waiting at home for the girls' arrival, Chief Tolliver said.

"It's Easter Sunday, you're expecting that your daughter will be home in just a minute," Chief Tolliver said.

Relatives of both families declined to comment Monday.

Relief fund

The Canyon Creek Baptist Church Care Ministry is taking donations for the Christensen and Foster families. Checks may be made payable to Canyon Creek Baptist Church, 2800 Custer Parkway, Richardson, Texas 75080.

At Monday night's vigil, senior pastor Rick Carter read Bible passages, and the group followed with song and prayer. Many teens stood near the pulpit long after the vigil ended, comforting each other and retelling stories of the two girls, both of whom played volleyball and basketball at the church's private school.

Gregory Ginn, a church deacon, said church officials got news of the fatal crash late Sunday night and rushed to area hospitals to comfort the families.

"They're taking comfort under the wings of God as they deal with this calamity," Mr. Ginn said, who described the Christensen family as actively involved in the church since 1988.

Mr. Christensen taught Sunday school and was actively involved in Baptist missionary work across the globe, Mr. Ginn said. Rachel and Rebecca were described as "good friends," who both attended classes in the church's private school.

"When you came into their presences, they made you feel welcome," said Jami Marion, wife of the church's youth minister. "They would have wanted this to bring people closer to God. That's exactly what they would have wanted."

The crash investigation continues.

No charges were filed against the teen driver of the Isuzu Rodeo, who suffered a broken ankle and cuts in the crash, Chief Tolliver said. A 15-year-old passenger was not injured, and alcohol did not appear to be a factor, he said.

Chief Tolliver said investigators were trying to determine what traffic violations, if any, contributed to the crash.

Don't worryDan Murphy, as you can see, [COLOR=339900]ibouncetoo[/COLOR] is keeping us in line. She was appointed watch dog and she's good at it.

Sorry for getting carrried away. But, if you guys notice, certain people come in here and get things started and then wander off, innocent and oblivious to the aftermath.....

It is so cold and so rainy and so miserable here today. Lunch at school reminded me of why I don't eat lunch at school. YUCK! I didn't eat it, came home and warmed up leftover chicken casserole from last night. I will post that recipe later.

Ohana the recipe for the breakfast lasagna was in this past month's Disney magazine. Do you get it?

 

[ohanafamily]

Not Sure, I will check with the cook of the family...

 

[llebrekniT]

More pictures!

Did I tell you guys how much we love O'hana's?

Not sure what that means. It's not a cookbook or cooking magazine silly. Disney magazine. You get it right?

BTW, where is the "cook". Thought she was getting back the other day. Is she still feeling under the weather? Perhaps, just perhaps, you should become the interim "cook in the family"?

 

[llebrekniT]

Hey, I keep forgetting to ask you.

Are you opening your own personal goodies as they come in or are you waiting?

And Barb, those things in Holly's ears are called "Earplanes". She suffers from chronic pain in her ears when we fly. They help tremendously.

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Ohana: Expect my box as early as next week but you know why it's late

 

[Lewski709]

See, look what you all have done. I told you iluvtink , I am ic.

Too bad Dan Murphy stops by when you guys are being naughty.

Ok as for the body parts, boys have a pee pee and girls have a wee wee. My mother would faint if my son said the anatomically correct words. Seen the movie Kindergarten Cop? It's great!

Big Butt club.....I can wear DH's pants, but he wears a 38. My hips are bigger than my butt, but I have a bubble butt. I qualify I am sure. I gain weight in my butt, hips, upper arms, legs, breast and LAST my tummy. I am working on ALL areas now.

Barb all better now, thanks.

The swap, I would love for TiggerFans! to be one with us. Since we have a few MIA, I think it's safe to send her shopping.

I sent something "male" for Huggabaloo, but it isn't much so it could be removed and replaced with what you have in your bag Ohanafamily. I counted incorrectly on the number of men, so I gave you (Ohanafamily) a unisex one. Unless you've already used it a bit. Then I think you should keep it.

llebrekniT the breakfast lasagna sounds simply wonderful. I would have no idea about making it and I don't get the Disney Magazine.

Cheeringmom size 7 doesn't belong in the big butt club, sorry honey. Neither does a size 9. The last time I saw a size 9 was soph hs.

Ohanafamily horrible tragedy.

Nice and Neph come on, I'm taking you to the firing range!!!!

kadaten I missed you.

RRBB get well and come back soon!
