She ended her post with a quote from Mr. Rogers, writing: 'The real issue in life is not how many blessings we have, but what we do with our blessings.'
In the snapshot, Jenna is wearing a sleeveless patterned dress and holding her three-year-old daughter, Poppy, who has her light brown hair in pigtails.
Her husband Henry, meanwhile, has five-year-old Mila in his arms as they smile for the family photo.
The family presumably spent the holiday somewhere warm; neither Jenna nor her daughters are wearing coats in the picture.
Although it is unclear where Jenna traveled to for Thanksgiving, she also posted pictures of her daughters on Instagram Stories.

Memories: Jenna was full of emotion as she explained how her grandmother needlepointed Christmas stockings for her daughters
Bittersweet: Jenna explained that her grandmother needlpointed as many stockings as she could before she died so all of her future grandchildren would have one
Jenna and her family are getting ready to celebrate their first Christmas without her late grandmother Barbara Bush, and she opened up about the matriarch during a Today show segment that aired on Friday morning.
'It is our first Christmas without our Ganny, and she was the force that kept us all together,' the Today correspondent explained.
'She was the one that we would be trying to be on our best behavior. Now she's not here, so I can go drink with Willie [Geist] — just kidding Ganny.'
All jokes aside, Jenna was full of emotion as she explained how her grandmother needlepointed Christmas stockings for her daughters.
'She started this tradition, which I just love. She needlepointed stockings . . . for my girls,' she said. 'They have one that will be hung on the chimney with care, and then she actually stockpiled.
Winter wonderland: Jenna said Mila's 'traditional' stocking has her 'name stitched in cursive next to poinsettias,' while Poppy's features a 'Christmas cat watching Santa suspiciously'
Looking back: In an essay for Southern Living, Jenna wrote about spending Christmas with her grandparents at the White House (pictured in 1991)
'She knew she was sick, so she did as many as she could,' Jenna continued. 'She needlepointed as many as she could so that grandbabies that came — great-grandbabies that came after she passed could have a stocking from her.'
'I think those are the things y'all, those are the things that matter. That's what I remember.'
Jenna wrote about her grandmother's needlepoint stockings, and how much she is going to miss her this holiday season in an essay for Southern Living.
'This Christmas, our first without Ganny, I'm nostalgic for the days when we were together. This time of year is full of love, but for those who have recently lost someone, that loss is illuminated,' she wrote.
Jenna detailed how her Ganny made her daughter Mila a 'traditional' stocking with her 'name stitched in cursive next to poinsettias,' while Poppy's features a 'Christmas cat watching Santa suspiciously.'
Good times: Jenna recalled how her whole family traveled to Camp David for Christmas Eve. President George H.W. Bush is pictured reading to his grandchildren at Camp David in 1991
Head start: Jenna and her twin sister, Barbara Bush, celebrated their 37th birthday a week early. The two were born on November 25
'Ganny left so much of herself here. And up until the last year of her life, she needlepointed feverishly,' Jenna wrote. 'She wanted to make sure there were stockings on reserve for great-grandchildren who would come after she was gone.
'That was our Ganny: She wanted to leave the world a little more beautiful through her work, her words, and even her needlepoint stockings.'
Jenna also recalled her family traveling to the White House for Christmas when her grandparents were president and first lady.
They would all drive to Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland, on Christmas Eve, and would gather in the main cabin, Laurel Lodge, 'for good food and plenty of laughter.'
In just a few days, Jenna and her twin sister, Barbara Bush, will be celebrating their 37th birthday.
Although they were born on November, 25, they enjoyed an early birthday dinner with their husbands last week.
Jenna posted a snapshot of herself sitting alongside her sister as they blew out the candles on their individual desserts a week before their birthday.
'Wombmate.com! Early birthday dinner with my favorite. (Thanks to our husbands!)' she captioned the image.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
