Kristen Bell just shared a rare family photo on her Instagram.

The 40-year-old actress snapped a selfie with her husband, Dax Shepard, and their two daughters, Lincoln and Delta. Bell said, “Dad hung lights on the oak tree and now we have an enchanted driveway!! Thank u @daxshepard ♥.”

In the photo, Bell is seen smiling next to her husband of seven years, while the pair's two daughters are shown posing next to them. While The Good Place star covered her kids' faces with a couple of purple heart emojis, we were still treated to a view of their haircuts, which mirrored their mom's blonde bob.

Bell previously explained why she doesn't post her daughters' faces in an interview with Romper, where she said, “My feeling is that I chose a career in the public eye. I chose to be quoted, I chose to have my picture taken. I don’t know them yet. I don’t know if they will want that. So I really don’t have the right to choose for them.”

Shepard and Bell even launched a campaign in 2014 to try to prevent paparazzi from taking photos of their children, which was soon followed by the passing of a law in California which restricted photographers from taking photos of celebrities' kids.

Once in 2018, Bell even spotted a photographer outside of her kids' school and she responded by walking up to the car and saying, “Hi. My name’s Kristen. Do you realize how much you are putting my kids at risk? I have confidence your mom raised you better.” (And she successfully got the photographer to delete the photos, BTW.)

Rock on, Kristen.
