So my faith has finally paid off! As you all know Angie was attended the premiere of Ocean's 13 with Brad and we got pictures and hugs!
AKSDFALKSJDF BEST DAY EVER!!!
We decided to start singing Happy Birthday to her when she got close and she looked so sweet and was like " Awwwww! " I gave her the birthday card and said Happy Birthday Angie! and I asked her if she would sign my jacket on the opposite side as Brad did. She was walking away and I said "Angie can I get a picture real quick?!" and she said "Yes, you can." So I tried to lean over the rail as best I could and Franky snapped a pic. Wendy gave her a hug and got a picture as well. Franky and Janine both got hugs. And poor Sierra lost her mind when she saw her and didn't mumble anything! We were all so excited!….

While Brad Pitt stumps for the green scene, careful not to say a word about his private life, his partner, Angelina Jolie, doesn't mind sharing some details about home life with their four children: Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2, Shiloh, 11 months, and new addition Pax, 3. Jolie, 31, brought Pax home from Vietnam in March. She tells June's Reader's Digest how she and Pitt, 43, are juggling parenting duties. "We've tried to figure out a lot of private time for each of them. When everybody goes to bed, we give Mad time. When everybody is at school, we give Shiloh time. In between, Z and Pax each get special time. And on Sundays, we have a big family sleep," when the kids get in bed with their parents and watch a movie. "We're talking about having to build a bigger bed!"
This month, the couple's youngest turns 1, and Jolie says that she planned her pregnancy with Shiloh. "I always said I was happy never to have a child biologically. (Brad) told me he hadn't given up that thought. Then … after Z came home (from Ethiopia), I saw Brad with her and Mad, and I realized how much he loved them, that a biological child would not in any way be a threat."
Asked if she adopted Pax so Maddox (from Cambodia) would have a brother who looks like him, Jolie replies that, after Shiloh's birth, "somebody in the house looked like Mommy and Daddy. It became clear to us that it might be important to have somebody around who is similar to the other children so they have a connection."
Family is important to Jolie, whose mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died in January. Jolie says that her mother lived long enough to see her "grow up to be quite happy."
New pics have been added in the gallery of Angie, Brad & co. arriving in Prague, and some new pics of Shiloh and Brad.. they are really cute.

NEWSWEEK INTERVIEW:
What was your original motivation for working with the UNHCR, for doing these kinds of trips?
Angelina Jolie: I started traveling about seven years ago with film. I would go to places like Cambodia and hear about the many refugees in Thailand and hear about the land mines and hear about the history….I remember sitting up for two days straight and reading everything obsessively. I read about the UNHCR and I realized it was an agency that I didn't know anything about: that they were taking care of 20 million people. … And I remember realizing that I couldn't understand how I had not known that my whole life.
When did it occur to you that you could do something about this directly? Did people approach you or —
I approached them. I think they thought I was a little crazy.
When was this?
Six years ago. I was very nervous to call the U.N. agency at the time. I [was] considered a rebel in Hollywood. At the time I was also a bit of the wild child. So first I went to Washington [to the UNHCR office] and I sat with everybody there and said, "You know, I know you don't know me. You might have heard things about me… And I don't want to bring negative attention to your agency. If you could just help me, I'll pay my way."
I spent the next year and a half going to, first, two camps in Africa, and then Pakistan and Cambodia. And with no cameras and with no press and had the opportunity to have this great education before I spoke at all…. I was transformed in such an amazing way.
BAHAI, Chad, February 27 (UNHCR) – UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie on Tuesday completed a two-day mission to a refugee camp in eastern Chad which enabled her to assess how the security situation has deteriorated for Sudanese refugees since her last visit to Chad three years ago.
Jolie, who visited both Chad and neighbouring Sudan's Darfur region with UNHCR in 2004, said she was struck by the sense of hope she encountered at the Oure-Cassoni camp near this town and by the widespread desire for peace-keepers to be deployed in Chad.
