Jon and Kate Spend the Fourth of July with the Kids

By Evil Beet Gossip • on July 5, 2009

Some heart-warming news amidst what feels like weeks and weeks of bad news — Jon and Kate Gosselin spent the Fourth of July together with their eight kids. It’s not a reconciliation, by any means, but it’s nice to see two parents put aside their difficulties and act like adults so that they can both spend the holiday with their children.

At their home in Wernersville, Pa., the family played volleyball and picked blueberries for a cake that Kate was baking, while Jon was seen lighting up a sparkler. The couple decided weeks ago to spend the holiday as a family.

“Jon pointed to the July 4 holiday and said, ‘What are we going to do about that?’” Kate said in a recent interview. “I absolutely cannot imagine not spending every single holiday with my kids. I don’t care what it takes. I will be there.”
