Wedding Shower for Katie

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.

  1. 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!

    2. I’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.

    4. Is that the prom style now? It looks way too casual for that

    5. It’s boho. Not a fan of it myself but I think it really suits some people quite well.

  3. I hope that Katie enjoyed her bridal shower!

    1. Erin was at a conference. Josie was on vacation and Alyssa had a wedding she was in. I have no clue why I know this.

    2. Josie was there! Just not in this picture.

    3. Actually, Josie and Michael were there, but they were running late, so they didn’t get in this particular picture.

    1. I 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.

      Delete
    2. I agree!!! Those tiered styles are not becoming an anyone that’s not young and skinny!

    3. Kelly dress does not gather. That's one of the dresses from Bates sisters.

      Delete
    4. 8:10 Kelly's dress has a gathered empire waist and another gathered tier below it.

  6. Aw, Charlotte is a cutie pie!

  11. I 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.

    1. They are not married yet.

      Delete
    2. Well, 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).

  13. Wish 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

    1. 3:52AM: You're so lucky to have their shows in the UK! We can't even get them in Canada! How unfair is that!

  14. Carlin should not go to all these parties. She has a difficult pregnancy and should rest and not get Covid.

    1. She 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.

      Delete
    2. Carlin should decide what she feels up to.

      Delete
    3. She should stay at home. A healthy baby is more important than a big party.

      Delete
    4. Carlin has a clotting disorder, which has nothing to do with parties and is treated on a daily basis with shots.

  15. October 6th 9:36pm You can get COVID19 again and with or without the shot.
