Another wrote, “You’re a lucky one, Erin!”

“Happy Birthday Ben! May this year be filled with happiness, laughter, love and good health!” said one commenter.

“You are each others treasure! Blessed with a wonderful family!” another added.

Another said, “What a beautiful memory for Helen. There’s nothing better than watching your parents love each other.”

Erin and Ben previously told the story of their first kiss in a Season 3 episode of Home Town Takeover. “The night we went on our first date, we stopped at a gas station, and [Ben] got a peach soda, our favorite, and we shared it,” Erin said, per EntertainmentNow.

She continued, “We were headed back to the dorm. He was going to drop me off, and then he said, ‘Would it be alright with you if I gave you a kiss?’ That was our first kiss. It tasted like peach soda.”

The happy couple met in 2004 while attending the University of Mississippi and soon started dating. They married on November 22, 2008, and had their first child, Helen, in 2018. They welcomed Mae on May 28, 2021.

Last year, Erin told People that what she appreciates most about Ben is his dedication to her and the children. “He always thinks about what would just delight me and the girls, without us asking for it,” she explained.

She added, “Like, we can’t just have dinner. We’re going to have dinner outside. We’re going to light a candle that smells like summertime. And we’re going to listen to Sam Cooke. Everything has to be an experience.”
