  1. Curious about how it came to be that Nathan and Lawson both go by their middle names????

    1. It's a Southern thing. Most of my relatives including multiple generations - go by their middle name.
      Happy belated birthday to my favorite Bates!

  9. Hopefully Nathan reads this blog but I doubt he does. Nathan is much to busy. But just in case let me send happy birthday wishes. May you continue to seek God's guidance for your life and that you will be a blessing to all you meet.

  10. It looks like Nathan was involved in dentistry on his mission trip. Is he a hygienist or training to be a dentist?

  19. Is Nathan a dentist, or is he just randomly poking around in someone's mouth?
