AKM-GSI-Photo taken at a public eventCould this mother-daughter duo be any more adorable?
Jennifer Garner and her nine-year-old daughter Violet Affleck were spotted at the L.A. Clippers game on Monday, where the famous mama and her blond-haired mini me were all smiles as they were photographed courtside together.
With no sign of Garner's husband Ben Affleck, nor the couple's other two children, Samuel, 2, and Seraphina, 6, the erstwhile Alias star and her eldest child appeared to be enjoying an afternoon of mother-daughter bonding, although Violet seemingly brought a pal along to watch the Clippers beat the Boston Celtics.
Both Jennifer and her daughter were snapped chowing down on cheesy pizza, and clearly, the 42-year-old actress, who showed off her chic mommy style in a striped shirt, jeans and grey booties, wasn't shy about fueling her appetite.
The two were also seen beaming from ear to ear as they watched the game, during which Violet and her friend clutched onto their American Girl Dolls (perhaps they were a good luck charm?).
Following the sporting event, Garner was photographed with her arm fondly wrapped around her daughter, as the proud parent escorted the little ones outside of the Staples Center. The mother of three also appeared to have treated Violet and her pal to Clippers T-shirts, which they were both photographed sporting as they exited the arena.
Despite having been in the biz for two decades, the Daredevil star has made it clear that being a parent is her No. 1 priority—as well as her favorite role.
"I'm still wiping a bottom, making three meals a day, dealing with sass—and also trying to work," she told Instyle for the mag's October 2014 issue. "I don't always do it all well. At bedtime last night my middle child said, 'I feel like you never have time to play with me.' I thought, 'My mom never played with me. I'm trying! But you know what? She's right. So my goal is to play dolls with her all afternoon. I guess I would say for this stage of my life, I'm in the thick of it."
