Anybody following Amanda's social media updates over the last few years knows she comes from a loving family. However, the "Fit for Christmas" actress never misses an opportunity to remind them of that fact, and she did it again when her mother's 75th birthday rolled around on Thursday.

Taking to Instagram, the mother-of-one uploaded ten slides that featured the celebrant beaming from ear to ear as she indulged in some of life's simplest pleasures. For example, Maureen was seen on a date with her husband Freddie and a pup on the first slide and later spotted soaking in the sun on a boat's deck while wearing a yellow button-down dress.

The matriarch is then shown reading to her grandson, Eduardo Elvis, from a large picture book in the fourth pic. Other slides highlighted her twinning with her daughter in a Christmas-themed two-piece suit, holding her adorable dog to her chin for a pose, sitting on a brown surface with her husband, and cuddling up with Amanda for an up-close shot.

A final photo showcased the happy mama in her wedding dress with a high neck and a row of buttons running down to her midriff. She held a bouquet and paired her gown with a veil and bold silver earrings. Beneath the carousel, Amanda penned:

"My beautiful mama is 75 years old today!! There's no one that loves to celebrate an occasion more than my mom. She taught us at a young how important it is to celebrate life and the day you were born!"

"The Talk" co-host then expressed her eternal gratitude "for her, her love, her grace, her laugh, her comedy, her singing and dancing, her hugs and her kisses." Wrapping up, the doting daughter wrote:

"She's the best and I love her to pieces! Happiest birthday mommy. My God bless you each and every day of your 75th year!"

Although the fitness instructor hid the number of likes the post accrued and limited the comments it received, it did not stop this netizen from writing, "Your Mom is a beauty!! Loved seeing her wedding photo."

A second fan commented, "Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, and radiant!" and a third added, "Happy and healthy and lovely bday to your mom. She is incredible." A fourth person claimed, "Your mama is my favorite xo happiest birthday," while a longtime follower lengthily effused:

"I love your parents so much... Ever since the early days when I started following Amanda, even before Nick passed. I always thought, Boy, those two really know how to raise amazing humans... I just adore them. Happy Birthday beautiful lady."

This will not be the first time Amanda will get fans' attention after crediting her mother for positively impacting her life. Last month, The Blast reported that the "Dancer with the Stars" contestant eulogized Maureen in a Mother's Day tribute with an image of the latter doting on her grandson and the write:

"I don't think you fully understand how much your mom loves you until you become a mom. Thank you for loving me, Mommy, and for teaching me how to be a mother."

Maureen is not the only one Amanda bragged about on her social media. As reported by The Blast, she shone the spotlight on her dad on February 14, which happened to be his 75th birthday. 

The dancer posted a single shot of herself and her beloved father holding each other close and smiling at the camera, setting it to Stevie Wonders' legendary "Happy Birthday" song. The fantastic write-up that accompanied it began:

"Happy 75th Birthday to my Dad and [the] greatest man I know. My Dad has always been full of love which makes sense because he was born on Valentine's Day!"

She then included her memory of growing up as Freddie's daughter, especially his use of the Bible to resolve some family fights. In her words:

"By the time we were half way through the verse the fight was over and we'd be hugging instead. He taught us very early on the importance of love and I'm forever grateful. ❤️ Happy Birthday Daddy!"
