And the best part is he's 1000% genuine , it's not forced like I've noticed with other couples, and no I'm not refereeing to the Bates with the forced comment.
I am so in awe of your mom and all of you kids she goes to amazing lengths to have her kids together and always keep christ in the middle of it they are the most amazing Christian parents and grand parents christ shines straight through all the kids and grandkids because the parents have not just taught it but lived it they bring joy to everyone around them thank you for sharing this I know where you get it from she has to be so proud of you for carrying this through to your family God definitely sent Chad to you knowing he would stand right beside you it is showing already in your children
Love the Bates…honoring God by loving their families …I’m so proud of Erin and Chad for raising their children with the purpose of honoring Jesus Christ 💞
Thank you, Erin, for this video. When I saw your Mom and Dad, I started to cry. I miss your TV show much. Your videos are always such a blessing as you are, Erin.
Honestly, this is one of the best family traditions I've ever seen. It's always a joy to watch the Bates family. Christian, kind, and well-rounded people.
I have followed y'all since you and Chad were engaged. I MISS seeing you and your sweet family every week. I LOVE your Mom and Dad and each one of your precious family members.
Mrs. Bates absolutely amazing me with all of her thoughtfulness that she puts into her family time. Sharing the love not only with family but sharing Christ's love letter, His Word, was such a blessing to see. Those games were awesome! I know everyone had a wonderful time! Costumes, phenomenal!!! Thank you for sharing!
I love your positivity! I love the way you always compliment your spouse and your children. I grew up in a family where you spoke to each other in ways I would never speak to my enemy even. I worked hard to be positive with my spouse and children always but it took so much effort and I had many failures but think I feel that bad family environment ended with me. When I watch you and Chad, it seems the positivity just flows so naturally like breathing and as a mother, I REALLY appreciate seeing it and feel your little ones are so blessed to have you as examples. Just as you are blessed by your sweet children!
I'm so thankful you continue to share your wonderful family with us - I miss Bringing up Bates SO much, but this helps to fill in the gaps! What a CREATIVE family you have - what fun when you all get together! You are SO blessed!
Erin, you get the award for getting great footage of I love you day. I live the Bates family. Sad some had to miss but that's life. You have an amazing family. I know you hated to leave. Ty do much for sharing with us. Be blessed.
Chad is right - you are absolutely gorgeous Erin. Love your family too. Thank you for being a positive example to the world on lessons in how to LOVE all ❤️❤️❤️
Erin you and Chad are my go to family, the unit sample of what God's family should be..not perfect but you're in that direction😊 May God continue His wonderful blessings on you, Chad and your dpecial children.. wishing you be safe, healthy and in love always eith the grave of God 🙏❤️ and your husband is right you are very beautiful just as he 8:01 is handsome 😊💞
You have a big responsibility keeping the kids entertained on long drives and you handle it beautifully! My husband and I tried to trade jobs once and I tried to drive while he cared for our two children (just 2!). It didn't take an hour before he was back in the driver's seat and I was back to multitasking. Anyway, one tip I wanted to share was small/half cookie baking sheets. If you get the metal ones (not aluminum) they are great for road trips. You can use them for magnetic toys, a desk for coloring and the edges keep toys/crayons from rolling off. You could use them for drawing on with washable and erasable markers too. You can use them for a snack tray and they are washable, stackable, take up almost no space and at the end of your trip, you can still use them for baking. Enjoy your travels with the kids. It's exhausting but so worth the memories!
Thank you for allowing us to come along on your trip to Tennessee. It was a joy to watch and to see your parents and a number of your siblings and their families. What a treasured memory for your family.
Wow I can't believe how Erin has time to always look so beautiful with all those kids and all the animals, would keep her so busy. But she manages to look refreshed and gorgeous always. Your family is amazing, God Bless. I love how you are all so faithful to God, and so close to your families. Love your family pictures.
Last comment (maybe)- I wish I had enough family to do an “I Love You Day” party. And have even less who would participate. LOL. Y’all’s always look so fun. I know Erin is a great decorator/party planning if you ever want a “side gig” you should consider it. But after seeming this, a lot of your family could also do party planning/decorating as a side gig (or Fulltime) if they wanted.
I love this so much and I look forward to seeing what you do every year. I love your family and really loved watching your dad do the Bible lesson to the kids. Priceless!!!
Way to go Gil! For not sugarcoating the gospel and teaching your grandsweeties that they are little sinners who must repent. So many people share the Good News apart from clarifying the bad. Well done. 📖🙌🏼
You're missing the gist of it. There's no reason to scold or be mean. When we realize we can't do without God it's a joyful thing to know that we're sinners. The scolding and harsh churches and religions are what turn people away from religion
@@andreafelton689 It’s called speaking the Truth in love. You are right though…we never want to use a scolding tone or be mean! Sharing the gospel is nothing less and nothing more than quoting the Word of God itself. People need to know that we are ALL sinners in need of a Savior who saves us from God’s wrath. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Rom. 3:23.). “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe the gospel!” (Mark 1:15). “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Rom. 6:23). We quote it, not yelling.
I really doubt that she thought anything about the babydoll’s color. Did you know that Mrs. Bates adopted sister is black and everyone loves her very much. They had her wedding on the program some years ago. This is definitely a family who sees the person and not color.
i love your family, you all seem so sweet and seeing your dad do a bible lesson with the grandkids oh that melted my heart i loved that. Makes me miss my dad who i lost 4yrs ago this easter. Your faith in the lord is so strong its awesome.
You did such an Awesome job filming your visit at the Big house.....giving us a tour, moving the camera slow so we could see everyone attending and then stopping and talking to them, showing their costumes and telling about the games that were played would like to know who won them, and Loved that you filmed Mrs. B giving the award and telling us Lawson's ok and your Dad's prayers....we miss y'all and all of your family activities...you could take over filming and bring back Bringing up Bates! Love y'all and God Bless your Beautiful family! Thank you so much for sharing.
I am sitting here in tears!!! I just LOVE your family and I miss them & the tv show SOOOOO much!!! I couldn't begin to pick who is the most creative in the family but I will say that if I had to pick the biggest heart winner, it would be Momma B every time! Your momma is just the sweetest, most understanding and compassionate woman I have ever seen! My prayer would be to meet her one day and get one of those wonderful, enveloping hugs I see her give! She's just the best! And Michael - oh my goodness the creativity that young woman has - that dress was stunning! And you're right, it could be a wedding dress! I thought your children's outfits turned out great! And the cape was awesome! I could go on and on (more than I already have!!!) but I'll end here with a HUGE thank you to you & Chad for sharing your lives with us. I always know that when I watch your videos I will be lifted up emotionally, spiritually and always leave feeling better than I did before! God bless you all - sending you much love and gratitude from over here in Central Texas! ❤❤❤
Looks like so much fun I'm so glad your parents do this where all ya'll can get together!! I love all the costumes!! Michaela's dress was gorgeous!! So glad ya'll were able to go visit your family!!
This is such a beautiful video. Thankyou so much for sharing your beautiful Christian family times with everyone. We are all so blessed to be a part of it all. For those of us who don't have families or are estranged from our families (eg some are Christian and some are anti Christian) it is so peaceful and beautiful to see what a truly authentic Christian family can look like. Such an absolute joy to watch. God bless and keep you always loving each other in the Lord in Jesus name. Your mother and father are such treasures. Much love from Australia. Xxxx
So much fun!! Nothing better then to see family coming together, having so much fun and sharing love for each other and our Lord. You all have inspired me for some family fun of our own! ❤
I cried when your mom talked about looking around and appreciating being together. My parents had 9 children. My parents along with my oldest sister died unexpectedly in August of 2021. Cherish the times with your parents and siblings. Do not take it for granted. I love your videos you put out. ❤
I kept tearing up throughout this whole video. Your family is just the sweetest and I pray I can be they type of mother and grandma your mom is as my kids grow 💗
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for showing us your I Love You Day celebration again in such detail, and allowing us into your family’s home again and seeing so many of your family together once more. Also, thank you for not going too fast with the camera so we could see everyone. I don’t know how much you kids understand, but your whole family has been such a joy and encouragement to me to watch through the years. Didn’t want it to end. This was such a treat tonight! 💜💐✨
Thank you for sharing your families, " I Love You Day". I love watching when y'all had the TV show and still love seeing it with y'all sharing with us all. great times and great memories for all. May our Lord bless you and your whole family and keep y'all safe and healthy.
Carson is definitely a mini Chad. All of your children are adorable and so well behaved. I'm happy that you were able to spend some quality time with your family. I can't wait to see Finley's one year old picture.
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing so much of the party with us! It was so great to see so many of the family members that we've missed and to be invited in to participate in I Love You Day with the Bateses once again!
I’m so glad you filmed “I Love Day” and shared it with all of us. It was one of the episodes I loved to watch on Bringing up Bates, every year. Your family is such a gift and a blessing. I love how you all prioritize family and family time! It’s so nice to be able to check in with you and your siblings that you-tube. Miss the show but glad to follow you on here: -Blessings to you and yours! ❤
Last time before vacation I added to the budget enough for a house cleaner. She came in and cleaned my house while I was gone. That way when we got home it was spotless. That was the best feeling. I highly suggest to start talking to and vetting one (of course have them come look and let me tell her what I needed done and she told what all she includes. Make sure they are bonded and insured. It was the very best budget addition I ever thought of. I suggest it to everyone. And of my friends and family who did it, they all say it will forever do it. Nothing like a clean house after vacation
Oh how I have missed watching your family's show! I felt like I watched all you kids grow up and it's so nice to be able to follow those of you with RUclips channels. It's like a visit with an old friend. Thanks for posting this one!
Thank you for sharing this❣ The "I love you day" celebrations are amazing. They were always my favorite episodes on the show. ❤ the Bates family is so sweet ❤ You guys are awesome!! 😎
Most fun family award goes to y'all! Thanks for sharing! Almost feel like I was there! Mom & Dad Bates guest suite is better than a hotel!! Very thoughtful touches! Chad sure was a good sport being knocked to the floor! Michael really put in a lot of effort on that dress & decorating! I could go on and on!
Jackson as MacGyver is dangerous, and hilarious at the same time. Emerson won’t have a dull moment married to him. 😂 Congratulations on their engagement. ♥️
Thank you so much for sharing some of the "I Love You Day" festivities. I miss this so much. I haft to say little Zade was so rocking the Baby Boss costume, my favorite 😍 .
The love in your family shines through. I’m so grateful you share your lives, it’s such a blessing. I pray to be more like the Bates family - encouraging, positive, fun, joyful, family-centered, patient, kind, and so much more! Jesus really shines through your lives and it’s so wonderful to see.
You will never know how much these I love you day means to me. I have watched y'all since the beginning. I have no family and my heart is full watching the Bates Family. I pray one day I could meet y'all. Your mom is the best mom I know. Mine has been gone almost 19 years. I so look forward to all the RUclips videos. God Bless and take care. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. Love all the kiddos.
I also pack goody bags for travel and it makes a huge difference! We’ve traveled from Michigan to the southern most part of Texas with 8 and 9 kids and it was so smooth! Love your heart Erin! ❤️
Thank you for sharing so much of your lives and I Love You Day!! We really miss Bringing Up Bates so it’s wonderful still getting to be a part of your family!
Thank you Erin for giving a behind the scenes of I love you day! Love seeing a lot of your family that we don’t see any more who are not on Instagram or RUclips. 💗💕🙏🏻👏🏻❤️ your mom always goes over & beyond. Blessings to you & your sweet family 🙏🏻💗💕
I always loved the 'I Love You Day' episodes when y'all were on tv so this is an extra special video for me! I love how your family indulges your parents by putting effort into making the day special. Costumes, helping decorate, and just being present. I'm a granny now and I know how much that must mean to your parents.
Michael dress was amazing!! She is so extremely talented
Chad is so sweet, it touched my heart when he told Erin, she's so gorgeous and he could video her beautiful face all day. Such a beautiful couple!
What minute mark? I missed that
@andrea felton A few seconds after they started to drive to Tennessee. Erin was doing the driving.
And the best part is he's 1000% genuine , it's not forced like I've noticed with other couples, and no I'm not refereeing to the Bates with the forced comment.

I'm a huge follower of the bates family. Love you all and love your family events and your dad's sermons .wish I had a big family❤
Michaela and Brandon looked amazing! What an amazing seamstress. Looks like everyone had fun
Thank you, Erin, for this video. When I saw your Mom and Dad, I started to cry. I miss your TV show much. Your videos are always such a blessing as you are, Erin.

I agree with you. I was not fortunate enough to be brought up in a Christian home. My family was so rowdy and so dysfunctional.
@@maryleve4793 You understand!

Thank you for sharing these special moments with your family ❤
She is gorgeous - face of a angel! Love you guys and the entire Bates family.
You have the best family ❤. I wish I could be a part of it 🥰
Valentines day is about love. Among everybody and everyone. No matter who they are and who they love. 🌈pride is everyday.
Thank you for showing the party. Felt like the old days with the show.
Thank you for allowing us to come along on your trip to Tennessee. It was a joy to watch and to see your parents and a number of your siblings and their families. What a treasured memory for your family.

Love this. Wish it could be televised. Miss the show
I know you didn't have any pictures of them but Carlin, Evan and their kids nailed it.
23:28 she shows them :)
@@SkySilver777 Thank you
I am glad you guys got to be with your family and friends god bless your family
I just want to comment how heart-warming it is to see that brown baby doll....🤎🤎
I really doubt that she thought anything about the babydoll’s color. Did you know that Mrs. Bates adopted sister is black and everyone loves her very much. They had her wedding on the program some years ago. This is definitely a family who sees the person and not color.
I really like your bluegrass background music! Funsville!

What a precious time! Thanks for letting us have a peak into your family time!

Last time before vacation I added to the budget enough for a house cleaner. She came in and cleaned my house while I was gone. That way when we got home it was spotless. That was the best feeling.
I highly suggest to start talking to and vetting one (of course have them come look and let me tell her what I needed done and she told what all she includes. Make sure they are bonded and insured. It was the very best budget addition I ever thought of.
I suggest it to everyone. And of my friends and family who did it, they all say it will forever do it. Nothing like a clean house after vacation
Might I add my house isn’t nasty to begin with, but definitely lived in. When I got home, me and hubby just had to do laundry and mow.
So much fun! Great costumes!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and tips, Erin!
Glad it went well!
God Bless you! Thoughts and prayers for you all!
Oh how I have missed watching your family's show! I felt like I watched all you kids grow up and it's so nice to be able to follow those of you with RUclips channels. It's like a visit with an old friend. Thanks for posting this one!

Most fun family award goes to y'all! Thanks for sharing! Almost feel like I was there! Mom & Dad Bates guest suite is better than a hotel!! Very thoughtful touches! Chad sure was a good sport being knocked to the floor! Michael really put in a lot of effort on that dress & decorating! I could go on and on!
Jackson as MacGyver is dangerous, and hilarious at the same time. Emerson won’t have a dull moment married to him. 😂 Congratulations on their engagement. ♥️

The love in your family shines through. I’m so grateful you share your lives, it’s such a blessing. I pray to be more like the Bates family - encouraging, positive, fun, joyful, family-centered, patient, kind, and so much more! Jesus really shines through your lives and it’s so wonderful to see.
You will never know how much these I love you day means to me. I have watched y'all since the beginning. I have no family and my heart is full watching the Bates Family. I pray one day I could meet y'all. Your mom is the best mom I know. Mine has been gone almost 19 years. I so look forward to all the RUclips videos.

Erin thank you for letting us in on your sweet family!!
It was nice seeing Michaela & Brandon. I have missed them. Glad you had a wonderful time with family.
What a beautiful family… Thank you for sharing with us… Blessings to each and everyone of you. Safe travels.

As always, thank you for sharing your life events with us fans. I look forward to every video ❤
The games looked such fun🤣. Great seeing everyone's creativity in setting the scene plus in costumes. 🕶🔎
Thank you Erin for giving a behind the scenes of I love you day! Love seeing a lot of your family that we don’t see any more who are not on Instagram or RUclips. 💗💕🙏🏻👏🏻❤️ your mom always goes over & beyond. Blessings to you & your sweet family 🙏🏻💗💕
Miss your show. So thankful you recorded this!
You guys are so blessed you seem like such a perfect family! Thanks for such a good video!
I always loved the 'I Love You Day' episodes when y'all were on tv so this is an extra special video for me! I love how your family indulges your parents by putting effort into making the day special. Costumes, helping decorate, and just being present. I'm a granny now and I know how much that must mean to your parents.
