Good Morning America anchor Lara Spencer had special reason to celebrate over the weekend when the entire family gathered together to pay tribute to their matriarch.
The TV anchor, 54, shared photos from a big family birthday bash for her mother, Carolyn von Seelen, and it was clearly an affair spanning the generations.
Lara shared several photos from the poolside party that involved some good-natured family fun, barbecue, running around with her dog Riva, and, of course, tennis.
And a pool party wouldn't be complete without a dip in the pool, as the ABC News host included a snapshot of herself from the pool in a red hot swimsuit, flanked on either side by her children.
Lara shares her son Duff, 21, and daughter Katharine, 19, with ex-husband David Haffenreffer, who she was married to from 2000-2015. She is currently married to entrepreneur and MarketAxess CEO Richard McVey.

Several attendees at the party were spotlighted in the mom-of-two's compilation, shared on Instagram, including her sisters, nieces and nephews, and their own kids.
"Kids, grandkids and great grandkids celebrating mom," she wrote, adding also a photograph of herself embracing her lookalike mom while holding her birthday cake.

"The birthday girl is more beautiful than ever. Love you mom," she lovingly captioned it, and fans sent birthday wishes of their own with comments like: "Twins so so beautiful, happy celebrating," and: "SO fortunate," as well as: "Beautiful mother and daughter."
It was a lovely family reunion for the GMA pop culture correspondent, especially considering that her daughter will soon be leaving the family nest for college.

Katharine was accepted early into Vanderbilt University on a lacrosse scholarship (the same school Harper Stephanopolous will be attending soon, the daughter of Lara's GMA co-anchor George Stephanopoulos).
Duff, meanwhile, just finished sophomore year at Southern Methodist University. She has often shared glimpses of her occasional visits to campus, and Duff is currently spending summer at home.

In an exclusive chat with HELLO! last year, Lara expressed relief that she still had more time to spend with her daughter. "We have one more year," she said. "I'm so thankful."
She reflected on the Covid-19 induced lockdowns and stated that the one silver lining to emerge from the difficult time was getting the chance to spend more time with her children while isolating at their Connecticut home.
"The impact of COVID on the kids and the world has been so tragic and difficult but there are little silver linings," the HGTV star said. "One of them has been to have more time with my children over the last few years. Being at home with them has really been cherished."
