Jennifer Garner: Errands with Violet!

Jennifer Garner holds hands with her adorable daughter Violet while running errands on Monday (April 4) in Santa Monica, Calif.

The 38-year-old actress is back in Southern California after spending time in Georgia, where she had been working on her new film, The Odd Life of Timothy Green.

Last month, Jen surprised her co-stars with a live lunch break performance by Fiasco, a local southern rock band.

The flick also stars Ron Livingston, Joel Edgerton, Dianne Wiest, and Rosemarie DeWitt.
