Bates Father's Day 2020

How did your family celebrate Father's Day? As the father of 19, father-in-law of seven, and grandfather of 14, Gil Bates receives numerous well-wishes every year. You have probably sensed this from watching Bringing Up Bates, but his family absolutely adores him.

The Bates had two other reasons to celebrate this weekend. Two days before Father's Day marked exactly 32.5 years of marriage for Gil and Kelly Bates, and the day before was Kaci Lynn Bates' 4th birthday.

  1. We celebrate with our own adult children/in laws. It’s a bittersweet day for us, as my parents and my mother and FIL have all passed away. We miss them all so very much!
