Erin Napier couldn't help but get emotional as the HGTV star looked back on the "sacrifice" husband Ben Napier made to secure the start of their life together.
The Home Town star, 40, shared the special story behind her engagement ring in an Instagram post on Wednesday, July 8, after coming across the original payment plan for the sparkler while drying out some of the sentimental items that got wet when the couple's basement flooded.
"It rained for two months, and so our basement flooded," she wrote in the caption. "Ben keeps a shoebox of things that were special to him as a boy down there. Inside it are photos from high school, school and sports awards, colorful notes from girls who were cheering for him at the game, and this."
Included in the post was the original payment contract for Erin's engagement ring, dated Sept. 15, 2007, which outlined how Ben would eventually pay off the $3,210 ring in installments.
“[Ben] had it all spread out on the stairs drying, and I felt a lump in my throat seeing the dollar amount for what he sacrificed and worked so hard to give me when he could barely afford gas for his truck senior year at Ole Miss,” Erin wrote, adding that she "didn't expect" the ring "at all," and "would’ve married him with a dandelion tied around [her] finger.”
View this post on InstagramThe Laurel Mercantile Co. couple got engaged on Sept. 21, 2007, three years after meeting one another, and they tied the knot on Nov. 22, 2008. The duo now shares daughters Helen, 8, and Mae, 5.
Last month, Erin took to Instagram to declare herself and her daughters "the luckiest" to have Ben in their lives. "If I went out of town for 2 weeks, he would know just what to do. He would know how much syrup Mae likes on her waffles in the morning, and how Helen falls asleep faster if you rub her feet at bedtime," she wrote in the June 21 post. "He knows when a girl is crying she probably needs a snack, a hug and a swim. He carries us. We are the luckiest."
