Luke Bryan's wife loves to show fans his softer side and, well, his goofy side. On Luke's 48th birthday yesterday (7/18), she did just that in a series of photos she posted on Instagram.

Caroline posted photos of her hubby through the years at home in a yellow leotard in funny Halloween costumes with her, a video clip of Luke hunting his wife and his sons Tate and Beau and turning it into a dancing trip, and more.

Caroline captioned the birthday photo dump for her husband of 17 years, "Happy birthday Luke!!! We love you so much!! You are the "Premium to my Zesta"…love you to the moon and back. (heart emoji) @lukebryan."

Fans joined Caroline in wishing Bryan a Happy Birthday in the comment section. Fans also chimed in with comments. One fan wrote, "Him sticking his head out of the window cracks me up!!!!!" Another fan said, "Happy Birthday, Dude!!! Nice tights!" One more Nut House Fan club member commented, "You are very down to earth and haven't let fame change you. Have a great day!"

The sweet post was liked almost 60,000 times.

Bryan is very passionate when it comes to songwriting and great songs. He doesn't care if he wrote a song or if it was submitted to him; he just wants to record the best songs.

Luke told us in a recent interview that his passion for songs started coming out when he was a teen and before he realized it. He said, "When I was fourteen years old, and I heard a new Alan Jackson song, it overtook my life back then. It took me over because I didn't realize that that was my calling, and that's why I liked it so much."

It's still there: "Even to this day if it's a Luke Combs song, a Morgan Wallen song, a Lainey [Wilson] song, or someone else does a great song, it takes over my world."

As Luke gets ready to start revealing new music with the announcement of a new album coming soon, he fans the flames, "It's all about being fired up for the song and in the moment. Hopefully, when you get a great song, you're smart enough not to ruin it in the studio."

In a recent interview, Bryan was asked the question if his kids listened to his music. The proud dad replied, "You know, they'll get into my truck, and they'll, ya know, Tate will be like, 'Dad, put some of your stuff on.'"

Asked how it made the superstar feel, he smiled and answered, "When your children ask to hear your music, it's pretty special."
