Kevin Costner is a proud father to seven kids, who he regularly takes along with him to public outings, whether it's film festivals or premieres. But the father rarely manages to get all seven of them in a camera shot.
But it seems that the actor was able to have a proper family reunion, with six of his seven children showing up for a festive celebration. It appeared that Annie, 40, Lily, 38, Joe, 36, Cayden, 17, Hayes, 15, and Grace, 14, all joined their father over the Thanksgiving period.

He continued: "At the top of my 'grateful for' list are the many really, really special memories I've gotten to make with my kids this year. Here’s to a holiday season dedicated to making more."
Kevin has had a huge year so far, following the release of Horizon: An American Saga chapters one and two. His son Hayes co-starred in the film with him, which was an opportunity for bonding
"He's very good," the Dances With Wolves star said. "But I kind of did it on purpose, so he could be hanging out with me."

Hayes said of the bonding experience: "I just thought it was really cool, it was an amazing experience," adding: "I was just really proud of my dad, he's been working for so long, and I just could only think about him at that moment."

"I had five of my children, two of my boys were in tuxes and my three little girls were there all dressed up and they were watching too. And they got a little startled by it, my son had not ever seen me be that emotional," he added.
