Talk show host
Jenna Bush Hager
admitted she felt 'exhausted' as she returned to Today with Jenna & Friends following a busy Easter weekend with her relatives.
Jenna, 43, reunited with her husband Henry Hager's side of the family, who came to visit the couple and their three children; Mila, 12, Poppy, nine, and Hal, five, at
their lavish six-bedroom home in Connecticut
, for the annual holiday - which included an Easter egg hunt.
During Monday's episode of Today with Jenna & Friends, the former first daughter - who recently admitted she tried to

Justin, 38, asked Jenna whether or not she "forces" her daughters to wear girly dresses for the Easter holiday, to which she replied: "No! I can't force anything … you think I can force anything in my house?" before claiming "they force me to do every single thing."
Jenna then revealed that it was her good friend Murray Fisher, the environmentalist behind the Billion Oyster Project, who dressed up as the Easter bunny, and admitted that two of her three children followed him around chanting: "Take off the head! Take off the head!"
"I was like, 'What is happening?!' He came back and was like, 'Those kids are ruthless, man'," she said, before adding: "The point is, no, I have zero control of anything in my house!"

Before discussing her Easter festivities, Jenna began Monday's show by reflecting on the legacy of Pope Francis, who passed away on Easter Monday at the age 88, weeks after spending a month in the hospital for bilateral pneumonia.
He was the first Jesuit and first Latin American Pontiff, who succeeded Pope Benedict XVI.
"He was a Pope for the people, he led with humility," Justin started, as Jenna recalled: "There's this image that I'll never forget of him washing the feet of women.
"He is as close to, I think, what Jesus would do … he was just a humble, beautiful man," she continued, adding: "The fact that he passed away on Easter Monday too."
