"It's great to have a boyfriend that is good at everything, like Kelton is, because he's like another Chad."
-Josie Bates
Between Tori Bates' wedding and Carlin Bates' courtship, we haven't heard much from Josie Bates and her boyfriend, Kelton Balka. In the video below, Kelton, a certified plumber, puts his skills to the test by attempting to fix the kitchen sink in Bobby's RV. Will Kelton be the new Chad Paine?

Who knows maybe. Kelton looks handsome I seen a photo of him when you guys was talking about Josie on the blog.
ReplyDeleteAwww that's great!
ReplyDeleteJosie is looking like Alyssa , and Katie is looking like Erin:)
ReplyDeleteYou're right! I enjoy seeing how some of the older kids have "mini me's" among the younger kids.
DeleteI'm confused how the Bates do courtships. Can they have boyfriends and girlfriends before courtship? Is Josie and Kelton courting? Isn't it technically dating if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend before courting?
ReplyDeleteThey date then court then get engaged then get married. For them the dating is like getting to know someone more closely than just a friend, and seeing if you want to move into a more serious relationship. Josie and Kelton haven't announced an official courtship, but I think they're already in one now.
DeleteThey are called boyfriend and girlfriend before they start courting. The boyfriend/girlfriend stage is when they get to know each other,and then the next stage is courtship.In courtship they are seriously considering each other for marriage. As far as we know, Josie and Kelton are still in the boyfriend/girlfriend stage, though my suspicion is that they are on the edge of beginning a courtship. I am thinking they don't call it dating until they are in a courtship.
DeleteWorking as a plumber and holding a college degree in finance, I'd say Kelton must be a man of many talents! Only question I have is, Will Josie and Kelton,and Carlin and Evan have a double wedding?!
ReplyDeleteIs Tori doing her student teaching now? What grade level is she working with?
