Joanna Gaines' Thanksgiving is gearing up to be magical with her husband Chip and their five kids by their side. 

The Magnolia network star took to Instagram on the eve of the holiday and shared a snapshot of preparations. 

Her fans were left in awe as Joanna's video featured her rarely seen daughter, Ella, 18.

Ella was busy in the kitchen

The table was adorned with perfect Syrian donuts and Ella looked like her mom with her long hair worn in a low, loose braid. 

She was dressed casually in a grey t-shirt, and jeans. Ella has inherited her mom's passion for baking and has her keen eye for detail too. 

Fans marveled at how grown up she looked and commented: "Ella grew up right in front of our eyes," and remarked: "Ella, your daughter? Grown up so fast."

They also said their treats looked "delicious," and wished the family a happy Thanksgiving. 

Her post comes at the tail end of an exciting year for Ella during which she's marked several big milestones.

Chip proudly sat with Ella after she cast her first vote as an adult

The teen celebrated her 18th birthday on October 20 and is now the second adult among the Gaines children after the oldest of their five kids, 19-year-old Drake.

Her turning of age meant she could also vote. At the time, Chip, 49, expressed pride in seeing his daughter vote for the first time, sharing a photo with her "I Voted" sticker and gushing: "Proud papa… #FirstTimeVoter."

They're a close knit family of seven

The teen launched a social media page of her own using her middle name, "Rose."

The private account was created back in 2018 but is finally in use by Ella, with both her parents following as well.

She and Chip also share kids Duke, 16, Emmie, 14, and Crew, six.

They're hands-on parents

In a matter of just four years, Ella and her two younger siblings will also be out of the home and in college.

"It's crazy, because I'm realizing in this new season of life, the next four years, all four of my older kids will all be in or out of college," she said during an appearance on NBC News. "

So we're in this new season where I'm really trying to embrace every moment and hang on."
