Would love to meet them. I live 3 hours away from Knoxville. I didn't see any appearances listed. Do they make any? Also would love to email Mrs. Bates and let her know what an inspiration she is to me. Is that possible?
The Bates don't make too many public appearances, but you are welcome to contact them at info@thebatesfamily.com. They have also chosen to share information about the church they attend, and they welcome visitors: http://www.batesfamilyblog.com/2015/10/visit-bates-at-church.html
The Bates seem like a lovely Christian family and I enjoy watching their show. However Im concerned why so many of their children hold up the devil sign with their hand gestures in various episodes ? Any clarification on this would be lovely.
I think you must be referring to the sign language symbol for "I love you." The "devil" sign you're talking about would be without holding the thumb out.
Hi, I also was concerned when I saw this symbol so I looked it up & wonder if it's just looks too similar so could be taken the wrong way by someone & leave them thinking the family endorse something they don't.
Just across ya'll's website and I am LOVIN' it! I also come from a big family, too (10 siblings; one married. Ages 9-26) so it's pretty cool seeing other families similar to ours. Keep up the good work, you guys! God bless!
I love your family's show and enjoy watching it. With 5 kids myself and more to come I learn so much from watching your family of TV. Please let me know if you have any appearances(speaking engagements ) coming up this summer I would love to fly and see one! Good Bless!
Lily & Ellie, Would you please put some Bates Family fashion tips on your blog? I'd like to know how they shop for cute clothes for the kids on a budget but look also keep up with the latest styles & modesty at the same time? Even for the teenagers! Also, can you please have some of the older girls give tips on home decorating on a budget? Thank you for your blog and to the Bates family for sharing with the fans! God Bless!
I would like to see some of their favorite recipes posted and meals they like to cook from the different family members. I think it is sweet how Warden likes to cook. He is going to make a great husband someday.
I'm a older lady and I love the show. I just think Erin is the cutest little thing.I have asked before if Erin would text me,I not in good health,but I would absolutely love it if she can send me anything ! Thankyou.my hubby and I just had our50th anniversary too ❤
I just love watching Bringing up Bates !! Will y'all ever get a new show opening ? I watch the show every morning Monday thru Thursday for reruns and on Thursday nights for new episodes.
I'm coming to TN next week, Jan. 27 - Feb. 2. Is Lawson performing any where now? I would love to see him. I will sadly not be in TN on a Sunday to go to church. But would love to see them.

DeleteI'm guessing you are referring to their pinky, pointer and thumb...which means "I love you"?!
