“Throwback Thursday” is a self-explanatory staple trend on Instagram and Twitter that always provides a good almost-end-of the week laugh.

But this week, Bar Refaeli was more sentimental than comical when she uploaded a picture of her and her mother on Instagram from way back when.

The picture of the gorgeous duo was captioned “My mom @zipi777 and me r having some quality time in LND. 4 the good old days.”

The picture makes it obvious where Refaeli gets her good looks from – her mom Tzipi Levine modeled in Israel during the 1970s.

Let the “awwwws” commence!
