Jennifer Garner takes Seraphina, 14, and Jennifer Lopez's daughter Emme, 15, to Disneyland
Jennifer Garner was every bit the doting mother as she chaperoned her 14-year-old Seraphina and Jennifer Lopez's daughter, Emme, 15, at Disneyland on Sunday.
While spending their time at the Happiest Place on Earth riding rollercoasters, like Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, the stepsisters, who have become close since their parents rekindled their relationship in May 2021 after almost 20 years apart, looked blissfully happy.
The 51-year-old Alias star made sure to document the girls' fun adventure, alongside a group of their teenage pals, as she dutifully took group photos of them with their friends.
For the excursion, the Golden Globe winner sported a blue long sleeve with a yellow smiley face on it, jeans, Nike sneakers and a black leather bag on her shoulder.
Emme, whose mother is married to Seraphina's father Ben Affleck, wore a brown patterned sweater and a pair of light-wash denim shorts.

Seraphina opted to rock an olive green graphic t-shirt and a brown flannel t-shirt.
Previously, Lopez gushed that Garner is an 'amazing co-parent' and noted how she works 'really well' with Affleck in an interview with Vogue last year.
While speaking about blending their families, the superstar said the worked hard to handle the 'transition' process with 'much care.'
'They have so many feelings. They’re teens. But it’s going really well so far,' the mom-of-two reflected. 'What I hope to cultivate with our family is that his kids have a new ally in me and my kids have a new ally in him, someone who really loves and cares about them but can have a different perspective and help me see things that I can’t see with my kids because I’m so emotionally tied up.'
Earlier this month, Lopez spoke about how watching Ben, 50, raise their children under the same roof has brought 'tears to' her eyes.
'He's an amazing dad,' she said. 'It brings tears to my eyes. He is honestly the best dad I've ever seen. He's so involved, he teaches me about how to interact with the kids sometimes.'
Jennifer called Ben the type of father anybody would ask for - a 'present, loving dad who cares.'
'He's just so in tune, he's such a brilliant guy anyway, like he's so learned in so many things, and you can just tell when he's had his kids, he read every book and everything you could possibly learn about children, and he applies it and is present and that's all you can ask for, is a present, loving dad who cares and who shows up every single day, and that's who he is.'

Blended family: Jennifer and Ben combined their families after tying the knot last year
Amicable: Affleck shares Violet, 17, Seraphina and Samuel, 11, with his ex Jennifer Garner (L)
Jennifer and Ben combined their families after tying the knot last year - the Waiting For Tonight songstress has twins Emme and Max with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Affleck shares Violet, 17, Seraphina and Samuel, 11, from his previous marriage to Garner.
Now a mother of teenagers, Jennifer said it has been difficult watching her children starting to 'individuate' themselves from her.
'I'm experiencing this now, we all experience it for the first time with our own kids, and you're just like "Oh, this is what she was talking about,"' she explained.
'This is the time where your kids don't want to talk to you, and they kind of individuating from you, and it's all necessary, and intellectually I understand it. But my heart! My heart!'
