In a previous throwback photo posted on Instagram, Erin couldn't stop gushing over her husband by commenting that he's "still my biggest crush."
"Had lunch at our alma mater today, and took a picture in the spot where we met in the yearbook office," she captioned the post. "We were 19 and 21 and had no idea this is what our future would be like."
They tied the knot in November 2008. Home Town premiered in January 2016.
Erin also included a present-day photo of her and Ben — with whom she shares daughters Mae, 14 months, and Helen, 5 — visiting the same yearbook office almost 17 years later.
