Meet Ava's new baby!! ..... picture...

[hwmnbn]

hehehe :evilgrin:

Ava is amazing. She has received worldwide support including much from generous DUers and it looks like her goal of making a documentary is slowly being realized. She's very excited and I'm so happy for her.

I've been privileged for nearly two years to watch this young lady grow as an artist, a communicator, and a human being. I just wanted to say that publicly.


*we now return to our regularly scheduled programming*



Her documentary's progress can be tracked at her site www.PeaceTakesCourage.com

Especially the link to the forum.

[Taverner]

2. Jesus F'n Christ - is there anything that kid CAN'T do??

Rawk on!

[hwmnbn]

6. sometimes it gets on my nerves.....

but no she is relentless!

[sakabatou]

3. O_O

How thick is the user's manual?

[Ava]

38. pretty thick

i'm still reading it! lol ;)

[sakabatou]

44. That makes my manual look like a

child's play thing.

[Ava]

49. my manual is a bible

literally :rofl:

[sakabatou]

50. Just like for other programs

My friend got lent me his photoshop bible.

[Ava]

54. i can only image the "after effects" bible

:P

[Richard Steele]

4. Sweet!

That thing makes me feel OLD just looking at it. Glad
it's in such good hands tough!

[Gato Moteado]

5. ava rocks!

i can't wait to see her documentary.

[rurallib]

7. Should be able to pick up the sound

of an administration crumbling in Washington.

[hwmnbn]

19. Bwahahaha....

She's doing her first documentary on returning vets, but your idea also sounds delicious!

[ClayZ]

8. Go Ava, go! K and R

:woohoo:

[Buzz Clik]

9. I want one.

No fair. Some teenager who works her butt fulfilling her creative genius gets this amazing camera, and I don't have one? That sucks. I'm entitled to one simply for existing and because I'll scream and yell until I get one.**

sigh.

Gorgeous, Ava. And well deserved.


**(The above rant was brought to you courtesy of teenage boys and girls everywhere. I thought it would be refreshing to assume the role of the entitled child for a moment, but it was an empty experience. I guess I'm just not 14 years old anymore.)

10. K&R

Hit em where it hurts!

[annabanana]

11. Now THAT is one good lookin' kid! . . Go Ava!

You GO girl!

[Rude Horner]

12. Anybody have a model #?

Just curious to do a little research on the new toy. I love new toys. :)

[hwmnbn]

21. She discusses it on her forum

[paparush]

13. S U H W E E T!!!

[tridim]

14. Damn, that's the camera I want!

I'm stuck with an 8 year old XL-1. It's a nice camera, but way too bulky for most events.

[progressoid]

16. Ya, I think her baby is cuter than yours.....n/t

[tridim]

18. No, IMO the XL1 is one of the most attractive machines ever made.

But it's looks are it's downfall IMO. Every time I bring it to a march or protest everyone thinks I'm with the press. It can get very annoying, people come up and say "Hey film me, I have something to say!"

[libodem]

15. What a brave, talented young lady she is.

[hwmnbn]

20. Makes us proud...

Gives me hope!

[Catherine Vincent]

17. Neato!

And here I thought you were talking a real baby!

[MethuenProgressive]

22. OW! That hadda hurt!

What's that, 13 lbs 10 oz? :rofl:
:yourock: Ava!

[hwmnbn]

30. OMG!!...

I can't imagine the Lamaze would help much with THAT!!

[Ava]

39. the delivery was 4 to 6 days

finally "brown" delivered my baby :rofl:

[goclark]

23. BRavo to Ava k and r

[enigmatic]

24. Wow!

That's sweet!

Ava's the best of DU; watching her grow as an artist and a person is going to be a pleasure to see in the coming years.

[Lochloosa]

25. SWEET!!!!!!!!!

Congrats Ava.

[Booster]

26. Damn, Ava can do some serious damage with that thing.

Can't think of anyone I'd rather see have one of these things than Ava. You go, Girl.

[Gregorian]

27. What a dream come true.

Support is real.

[yellerpup]

28. What a girl!

Way to go, Ava! K&R!:kick:

[photogirl12]

29. K&R for Ava!!! n/t

[JuniperLea]

31. Ava! She looks just like you!

Soooooo cute! And I bet she is almost as smart as you too!

We knew her when, folks. We knew her when... sigh...

By the time she is my age, she will have a production company of her own!

Oh, Ava! When the time comes, you will need a personal assistant with killer corporate skills! I'm there for ya babe!

[hwmnbn]

32. Can I be the roadie??....

Pleeeeease!!??!!

[JuniperLea]

43. Heck yeah!

You can carry Ava's special brand of water and GREEN ONLY M&Ms!

:)

I would totally get off on spoiling that kid rotten;)

When people spend all their time thinking of others, sometimes they neglect themselves. It's people like us who balance things out.

:)
