Angela Rye and her family have much to celebrate this holiday season, including a milestone birthday for her grandmother.

The 38-year-old attorney and CNN political analyst took a pause from her weekly appearances on CNN and other numerous programs for the holiday season to spend a little quality time with her family.

The fearless trailblazer also shared additional photos from the evening on her Instagram page, which included several beautiful images of herself, her mother and her grandmother, who represent 3 generations.

I call her my sister-cousin. We fight hard, but love harder. Her new nickname is Mi-yanla because she STAYS fixing lives. She has the patience of Job and the resilience of Esther. She is everyone in the family’s biggest cheerleader. A powerful mother, daughter, niece, granddaughter, sister, cousin, and friend @_mia206_ is the definition of the truth. Happy birthday, cousin!! ✊🏾💕😘
