It's time to (re)meet a member of the Matthews Family!

Think back—14 year ago to be exact—to the very last episode of Boy Meets World. Fans were touched when Cory (Ben Savage) passed on some heartfelt words of wisdom about taking on the world to his baby brother, Joshua, in the final few minutes of the series. (We're feeling all the feels just thinking about it. Seriously just look at how adorable this conversation is!)

And now, it's time to catch up with the youngest member of the Matthews family in Disney's highly anticipated new series Girl Meets World. So which lucky actor has been tapped to join one of the coolest families in TV history?

The Glades' Uriah Shelton will appear in the series' upcoming holiday episode as teenage "Uncle Joshua," Cory's laid back and effortlessly cool little bro. (He sounds like a mini Eric Matthews!) Check out our exclusive photo above for your first look at Joshua bonding with his niece Riley (Rowan Blanchard) and her BFF Maya (Sabrina Carpenter). 

In the same holiday episode, "Girl Meets Home for the Holidays," fans will also be treated to the ultimate Boy Meets World reunion. Betsey Randle and William Russ are set to reprise their roles as Amy and Allen Matthews, while Rider Strong will once again grace our TV screen as the perfectly-haired Shawn Hunter.

And, in case you missed it, check out the video below for a sneak peek at GMW's opening credits—complete with Boy Meets World's signature paper airplane! Get ready for giggle-worthy hijinks, squee-worthy Cory and Topanga (Danielle Fishel) moments and more. Click away, we know you want to…

The series premiere of Girl Meets World debuts Friday, June 27 at 9:45 p.m. on Disney Channel.
