Zach and Whitney Bates have big news. They bought a house! It's a fixer-upper, but they say they are looking forward to fixing it up. The previous home they lived in was a rental.

Good for them. It's always a great feeling when you have a place that is completely your own.
ReplyDeleteI would have never guessed that they didn't own their own home, since they did all that work making Bradley's room.
ReplyDeleteWe moved over 18 times in our marriage, living mostly in rentals. We decorated and improved every rental we ever lived in including laying new Pergo floors. Rent or Own, a home is a home. Nothing says home more than to personalize it.
DeleteCongrats
ReplyDeleteBradley looks good. Where is there daughter Kaci Bates at? Zack lost a lot of weight? What's his secret to losing weight. Love Whitney's outfit.
ReplyDeleteIt might be a old picture
DeleteCONGRULATIONS VERY HAPPY 4 U BOTH! MAY YOU HAVE MANY YEARS OF LOVE AND LIFETIME MEMORIES N YOUR HOME! JESUS BLESS YOU ALWAYS I LOVE THE BATES
DeleteI'm so happy for your family. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteooh that's cool. how far are they now from the big house? is it bigger than the previous? will bradley and kacy have their own room? or will they sharing one since they are still so young? love see With and Zach so happy
ReplyDeleteGreat photo....congrats on your new home!
ReplyDeleteWe can’t see the new house! Can you post a picture of the house?
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on the home purchase.
ReplyDeleteZach & Whitney did some lovely renovations to their (existing) rental, so no doubt they will fix this home too. Happy holidays the the entire Bates Family.
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on purchasing your new house. We bought ours last year and we love it. Have fun fixing it up and making it your own.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Miss Munchkin?
ReplyDeleteThey look dressed to do some work. It may not have been safe for her to be there. Bradley has his tools ready to help.
DeleteCongratulations! So happy for you!
ReplyDeleteWell done you two hope everything goes well for you
ReplyDeleteExciting! Look forward to seeing the work they do and the smiles on their faces!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Bradley is a Jr. Carpenter like dad. So cute. Seems everyone now days wants to do fixer upper careers. It seems this market is over-saturated now. However, I DO love Zach and Whitney and so impressed they have real jobs. Way to be ambitious and take care of your family. I think you guys rock. Your kids seem to have personality-plus!! I hope you will share your new home with us like you did the other one. You did a great job on it and I loved it. Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI thought they owned the one where they lived since their wedding. They did so much to update and improve that property that it is hard to believe they do not own it. Maybe they had a deal with the owner to do the work instead of paying actual rent.
ReplyDeleteLittle Bates? Can you please just call them Zach and Whitney?
ReplyDeleteThey refer to themselves as the Little Bates Family...
DeleteZach and Whitney refer to their family as "The Little Bates Family". They've done so for several years.
DeleteThey actually call themselves the Little Bates, so Ellie is just calling them something that they like to be called.
DeleteI agree, it seems condescending and not respectful. They are BATES in their own right with an average number of children. Calling them LITTLE Bates compares them constantly to their parents. I realise it's a way to differentiate between both familys, but I think the Younger Bates family would be more respectful, if anything is needed. The Paines are not called the Little Paines, even though they also have less children than Chad's parents.
DeleteI agree. It's an odd choice for a title.
DeleteStop and be nice. Don't complain about every little thing.
DeleteI agree. The title of this post seems a bit odd.
DeleteYou can call them that
DeleteBut I like little bates family better
They've always called them the Little Bates Family.
DeleteExciting news! Congratulations, to Zach, Whitney and family...Jane
ReplyDeleteWhitney looks especially happy lately!
ReplyDeleteWhitney has JEANS on? I thought jeans were taboo....either way, best of luck in their new home...
ReplyDeleteOld news.
DeleteWhitney has been wearing jeans since before she and Zach were married.
DeleteA new house, how exciting, wishing you much love and happiness.
ReplyDeleteWell since the Bates and Duggar moto is being debt free-were they able to buy their house outright or will they have a mortgage.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Whitney and Zach!
ReplyDeletewhat is a live in Zach & Whtney New home
ReplyDeleteIs Zach still working in law enforcement? Chad's comment about Zach being in framing, as well as Zach's desire to work with Chad, makes it seem like he changed careers
