Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner seem to be following the Gwyneth Paltrow/Chris Martin conscious uncoupling playbook.
Us Weekly reports that the divorcing spouses put on a happy face for a family trip to Disney World in Florida in honor of Affleck's birthday. The actor turned 43 on August 15.
Joined by their three children, the former couple were spotted enjoying rides like Dumbo the Flying Elephant. Frankly, we can't think of a worse place to be stuck with your ex, but it's all for the kids.
"This was all he wanted to do for his birthday, go to Disney World with his family and that included Jen,” a source told Us Weekly. “They planned this and all went to Orlando together."
Affleck's mother joined the group, though eyewitnesses say Garner and Affleck, both of whom wore their wedding bands, weren't exactly looking overjoyed.
"They didn't outwardly appear to be having a ton of fun," a source revealed to Us Weekly. "But they weren't rushing around, and kept telling the kids they would do whatever they wanted."
But no photo opps with Mary Poppins, kids. Anything but that.
