Thanksgiving Day is over, and there are only a few activities we feel like doing the next day: eating leftovers, shopping Black Friday sales, and looking at what our favorite stars did for the holiday. Reese Witherspoon, Michelle Obama and more are sharing Thanksgiving Day photos and sharing what they’re thankful for — and we can’t get enough!
Celebs like Jamie Lee Curtis and the Kardashian-Jenner family spent the holiday helping families in need, while Oprah Winfrey and Chrissy Teigen cooked up a storm for their families at home. Couples Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez and Diane Kruger and Norman Reedus took to social to share their love, and the Obamas and Beckhams sent out sweet, holiday-card-style photos of their families for us to swoon over.
