Ice cream makes everything better.
Ben Affleck was on daddy duty over the weekend!

Ben Affleck took his kids Samuel and Fin out for ice cream over the weekend.
In photos obtained by OK!, Affleck appeared in decent spirits while strolling through the streets of Los Angeles with his and ex-wife Jennifer Garner's two youngest children on Friday, August 23.
The doting dad-of-three, who also shares his eldest daughter, Violet, 18, with the 13 Going On 30 star, brought Fin and Samuel for ice cream while dressed in khaki pants, an olive green long-sleeved button-up shirt and matching Nike sneakers.

Samuel, who held onto a nice camera, and Fin — who had a water bottle in hand — were dressed a bit more casual, with the youngest Affleck kid wearing a blue T-shirt, light wash jeans, and matching his father in a pair of Nikes, while the Air star's middle child sported khaki shorts and a light blue crewneck with the text "Farm Camp" displayed across the front in large print.
The trio made their way to pick up a sweet treat at an ice cream parlor in Brentwood, Calif., just one day after Affleck brought Fin and some friends to the movies.
Ben Affleck was also seen taking Fin to the movies with friends one day prior.
During the Thursday, August 22, outing, Affleck appeared a bit less happy, as he seemed distracted while looking at his phone, according to photos obtained by a news publication.
The Argo actor spending quality time with his children comes amid reports he hasn't kept "touch" with Jennifer Lopez's twins, Max and Emme, 16, throughout their mother and Affleck's divorce.

Ben Affleck appeared in good spirits during the ice cream outing.
This is upsetting for Lopez, as "[Jennifer] went out there and told the world what a great dad he was," the insider close to the Marry Me actress explained.
"The fact that he has not seen her kids in a long time, it’s like he left, but she is especially close to his kids," the confidante continued.
