"When I saw my father walking up to the front by himself, that was the first time that [the emotions] really hit me, and I was struggling a lot with that. Bobby knew exactly what was going on, and he pulled me over and started praying with me right there."
-Kelton Balka
Have you heard the big news? Josie and Kelton Balka are expecting! But before we start focusing on their preparations for parenthood, we first must watch their wedding episode. It airs tonight at 9pm ET/8pm CT, in honor of Valentine's Day.
Scroll down for photos and another episode preview. As usual for Bates weddings, you'll likely need a stash of tissues as you watch tonight. As many of you know, Kelton's mother passed away when he was thirteen, and as you'll see in the scene below, the wedding was an especially emotional time without her there.
