  7. Is black Josie's favorite color or is it because she's a hair dresser now?

  12. Beautiful woman.... but why can’t you just say Josie is 18? Why the “ almost 19?”

    1. to make her seem older since she’s about to get married ๐Ÿ™„

    2. Because she is almost 19. When you are that age, you naturally say you are about to be.... my son’s birthday is in a couple of weeks. He is 15. Someone asked me a couple of days ago how old he is, and I told them 15 about to be 16. At some point, we don’t like acknowledging that we are getting older, so we quit trying to bump it up to the next year.

    3. I agree Anonymous @3:38. My daughter has a birthday coming up in a couple months and I do the same thing! I guess because she's closer to the next birthday than her last one.

  13. The blonde Bates girls! Where was Erin, Alyssa & Callie? Cute picture though

  14. I think Katie, Erin, Josie and Alyssa die it, based on their childhood pics. The only one who seems to be naturally blonde is Callie

    1. Alyssa definitely dyes her hair and Katie and Josie highlight theirs. So does Carlin. Not sure about Michael and Erin.

    2. I think only Alyssa' s hair is died. I could be wrong thoughm

  15. Katie can look like both of her sisters Carlin and Erin mostly Carlin.

  16. If I didn’t know better, I would think Katie to be older than Josie. They are both beautiful young women and seem very stable.

  17. Katie resembles Erin. Alyssa is a bit more petite as is Josie.
    TWO very attractive girls for sure.
