Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and the kids come home to New Orleans

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie must be happy – this weekend the Jolie-Pitt family came home to New Orleans. Although they seem to enjoy Europe, they’ve frequently said that they love New Orleans more than any other home base. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that they get to live a bit more of a normal life (such that it is) there. Yes, people still take their pictures, but you don’t seem to see throngs of cameras following them everywhere.

As a result, Brad was able to go for a motorcycle ride (see here and here). I love motorcycles anyway, but add Brad Pitt to the equation, and it’s even better!

Meanwhile, Angelina Jolie took Maddox Jolie-Pitt to Little Toy Shop in New Orleans to do some shopping. They made some purchases while they were there. I wonder if they’re Christmas presents from Maddox to his siblings or if they were just some “just because” toys – those are always fun to get!

I wonder if there will be any kind of special DVD launch for Wanted which comes out on Tuesday; I didn’t expect a big red carpet event for the Kung Fu Panda release but there she was, so you just never know!

In other news, Brad Pitt is supposed to be on the Today show on December 2nd as well. There had been some questions as to whether it was a live appearance or a previously taped segment but if they’re state-side, there’s a good chance it will be live.

I know Maddox is seven now, but it’s still sometimes such a shock to see how big he’s getting! When did he grow so much?!

You know what I love about Angelina Jolie? (Well, okay ONE thing I love about her, among many!) She makes more money than I can even dream of, and yet she’s still wearing those nude flats, shoes I have seen her wear for ages. Not many high profile celebrities wear a pair of shoes to death but she does. I don’t know why, but I love that.

Enjoy!

    They’re so much happier and freer in New Orleans. They have breathing room! It’s as if a big burden has been lifted. They’ll be gone when hubby and I visit, but we’ll drop by the toy shop for a souvenir.

    I notice that she wears so many of her clothes over and over. She’s worn those shoes to death. (makes me wonder if she might have 10 pairs of the same) :)
