Bringing Up Bates star Josie Bates is engaged!
The reality TV cutie revealed the news on her Instagram account with a photo of herself and beau Kelton Balka posing in front of the beautiful red rocks of Utah at Arches National Park.
Josie, 18, captioned the shot, "I cannot wait to marry the love of my life. ❤? couldn't have dreamed of a more sentimental engagement. Kelton put so much time into planning and making sure every little detail was perfect and it felt like a dream ? can't wait to do forever with you, Babe ?❤."
The big Bates family is known as a cooler version of the Duggars, and on Friday, Balka pulled off a wholesome proposal after leading Josie through a series of scavenger hunts, as UP TV revealed to In Touch.
"Kelton surprised Josie at her work, R&Co Salon in Knoxville, TN, with a bouquet of flowers and a charm bracelet that began a multi-part scavenger hunt," the network said.
Then, with the help of Kelton's father, Michael Balka, and her parents, Gil and Kelly Jo, Kelton took Josie on a trip to Utah!
