The holiday seasons are upon us, and some of TV news' most beloved hosts are celebrating together, including ABC News anchor David Muir.

Hosted by Deborah, 63, and her husband Al Roker, 69, the party played host to attendees from ABC news as well as NBC News, Al's stomping grounds as the beloved meteorologist of the Today Show.

Deborah also included photos from a second celebration, which included GMA anchor Robin Roberts and her wife Amber Laign, Today's Willie Geist with Brooke Shields, and ABC host Linsey Davis.

"The sparkle of the holiday season… festive… joyous… exhilarating… and not for the faint of heart," Deborah captioned her collection of photos, immediately receiving an enthusiastic response from fans and friends alike.
