The Bringing Up Bates season seven premiere on January 4th will air just three days after the three-year anniversary of the series. Three years? Can you believe it has been that long since the Bates family first appeared on UP?

A few days ago, we posted snapshots from Bates Thanksgiving 2017. Although the holiday is over, we thought you would enjoy these Thanksgiving videos clips from a couple years ago.
