When you are a member of the Bates family, attending showers is a regular activity. It seems like someone is always having a baby or preparing for a wedding. Yesterday, the ladies gathered to celebrate Katie's upcoming marriage to Travis Clark (on December 3rd). They hosted the shower at the Bates Sisters Boutique.

We have attended many bridal and baby showers for the Bates kids. always a fun event. Now we are both 80 and not doing well physically so will miss the showers and Nathan and Esther's wedding. We have attended all the previous ones!
ReplyDeleteHow special that you have gotten to celebrate with their family!
DeleteI’m sorry to hear that you now have to miss the Bate’s events. I’m sure it’s difficult when you’ve been involved. But health comes first, and thank goodness their are places on social media to see pictures from each event.
DeleteIs Katie wearing a long gown at her baby shower?
ReplyDeleteWedding shower, not baby shower.
DeleteIt looks like it, absolutely beautiful dress. She had a really nice bridal shower. 😊
DeleteShe looks she's going to prom!
DeleteIs that the prom style now? It looks way too casual for that
DeleteIt’s boho. Not a fan of it myself but I think it really suits some people quite well.
DeleteI hope that Katie enjoyed her bridal shower!
ReplyDeleteErin, Josie, Michaela and Alyssa weren't in the picture. :(
ReplyDeleteErin was at a conference. Josie was on vacation and Alyssa had a wedding she was in. I have no clue why I know this.
DeleteJosie was there! Just not in this picture.
DeleteActually, Josie and Michael were there, but they were running late, so they didn’t get in this particular picture.
DeleteWish Kelly would quit wearing dresses that gather . She a straight style outfit.
ReplyDeleteI don't think the gathered/over-sized prairie style dresses look particular good on anyone, regardless of age or figure. They simply are not flattering, IMO.
DeleteI agree!!! Those tiered styles are not becoming an anyone that’s not young and skinny!
DeleteKelly dress does not gather. That's one of the dresses from Bates sisters.
Delete8:10 Kelly's dress has a gathered empire waist and another gathered tier below it.
DeleteAw, Charlotte is a cutie pie!
ReplyDeleteEllie looks a lot like Tori!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Very nicely planned! Hope everyone is being careful with large indoor gatherings right now though!
ReplyDeleteellie and addie are growing up into such beautiful young ladies
ReplyDeleteI agree. They will start courtships soon.
DeleteAwe the Young Group of girls have gotten grown up and lovelier. But where is Sassy Callie? Everyone looks nice in photo, hope it went well.
ReplyDeleteI thought Josie was her closest sibling so surprised she wasn't there. But I do understand you can't always find a date that works for everyone in your family.
ReplyDeleteWhere was Tiff and Ester????
ReplyDeleteThey are not married yet.
DeleteWell, they don't live anywhere near there and Esther is probably very busy getting ready for a wedding in a few weeks. And Tiffany may be working (Esther too).
DeleteWish we still had your shows showing in the UK I use to really love watching the beautiful family. Love and health to you all xxx
ReplyDelete3:52AM: You're so lucky to have their shows in the UK! We can't even get them in Canada! How unfair is that!
DeleteCarlin should not go to all these parties. She has a difficult pregnancy and should rest and not get Covid.
ReplyDeleteShe has already had covid. Her body has natural immunity. Check out the massive results coming out of Israel about chance of second infection with natural immunity compared to those vaccinated.
DeleteCarlin should decide what she feels up to.
DeleteShe should stay at home. A healthy baby is more important than a big party.
DeleteCarlin has a clotting disorder, which has nothing to do with parties and is treated on a daily basis with shots.
DeleteOctober 6th 9:36pm You can get COVID19 again and with or without the shot.
