Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck usually prefer to keep their kids out of the spotlight and are notoriously private about their social media exposure as well.

The party-of-seven were enjoying a relaxed day at the mall, out browsing for items for the home, as well as popping into stores such as Terrain, Dr. Martens and Vans. 

Jennifer looked as stylish as ever dressed in a Snow White knit sweater from Coach with cargo pants, a pair of Nike sneakers, a Himalayan HERMÈS Birkin bag, and a pair of gold frame aviator sunglasses. Ben kept it casual with a gray T-shirt, black joggers, and green and white sneakers.

Their children, meanwhile, were almost unrecognizable. Violet, who was the only one wearing a mask, was almost as tall as her father, even styling out her outfit in the most chic manner with wide-legged jeans and a beret.

Seraphina and Samuel opted for comfier and baggier options, while Emme sported voluminous curls and Max seemed to be busy with his phone.

The parents were observed doting on their kids and helping them with their shopping, once also pausing for frozen yogurt at Yogurtland, and they looked like quite the happy family.

Jennifer announced her engagement to Ben on 8 April, sharing an emotional video in her On the JLo newsletter that showed her crying while admiring her 8.5 carat, natural green cushion modified brilliant-cut diamond ring, reported to be worth $5million.
