Reese Witherspoon Before the Water For Elephants Premiere

Reese Witherspoon picked up her kids, Ava and Deacon Phillippe, from school in LA yesterday and then spent the afternoon running errands around town. The trio are back from their tropical getaway with Reese's husband, Jim Toth, to Belize, where they spent a few relaxing days in the sun. Reese is now gearing up for a trip to NYC to join her Water For Elephants costars Robert Pattinson and Christoph Waltz at the world premiere of their film. Her larger-than-life castmate, Tai the elephant, won't trot down the red carpet with Reese and Rob, but she did make a lasting impression on both stars. Rob admittedly fell in love with the pachyderm, and Reese experienced her own tearful goodbye with the gentle giant when filming wrapped. It will be a happy occasion, however, since fans will finally get a chance to see the reunion of Rob and Reese — don't forget we'll be streaming live from the Water For Elephants world premiere, so stay tuned Sunday to see the action as it happens!
