It’s been way too long since I’ve shared on here!

We’re still in Uganda, and I’m so grateful to share that our adoption was officially completed a little over a year ago. Since then we’ve been in a waiting season for Tru’s visa. It’s taken much longer than we expected, but we continue to trust in God’s timing and are focusing on staying present in all the goodness He’s given us here.

One of the greatest gifts of this season has been the community we’ve found. Yesterday I attended my first Market Swap, and it was such a joy-filled morning—sharing brunch together and exchanging homemade goodies. I brought vanilla bean scones (which were a hit) and jars of pineapple-lime jam for everyone to take home.

It reminded me so much of my Shawna’s Table days💗- that same love of gathering around food, sharing recipes, and creating together. It also made me realize how much I miss it… and how determined I am to host a Market Swap when we’re back!

I’ll share the scone and jam recipes in the comments—they were too good not to pass along!

We all went home with a basket full of:
💗beeswax candles
💗cold brew concentrate
💗homemade vanilla extract
💗potted succulents
💗dot cakes
💗candied pecans
💗savory herb rub
💗cinnamon rolls
💗pineapple-lime jam
💗Lemon bars
💗hummus

Although Jinja has some really great food, sometimes we get a strong hankering for American snacks! Today Layla reeeally “needed” some goldfish crackers. Luckily there are lots of copycat recipes out there and even though these aren't exactly fish-shaped, they hit the spot... and with only 4 ingredients! Here's the recipe we used: https://feedingtinybellies.com/homemade-goldfish-crackers/

Hey everyone! For those of you who have been following my family’s story, I thought I’d give you a life update! On May 30th we received the incredible news that, Tru Tucker is officially our son!!! The Lord is so good!🙌🏻 Our next step is to get his visa and passport so we can bring him home! This process will take a few months, so we plan to be here in Uganda through December as we finish that process and allow our kids to get through the first semester of school. I’m sure transitioning back to life in America with a toddler will be an adjustment, but we are so excited to introduce our little guy to friends and family! Thank you to all of you who have reached out to check on us or inquire about our return. Obviously I won’t be around this summer for my usual camps, but hopefully I’ll be ready to roll again by next summer! I miss your kiddo’s sweet faces and all the fun we share in my kitchen!🩷

Tripp and his friend, Sam tagged teamed making brownies last night for their school entrepreneur day! They turned out fabulous, but unfortunately I had to sacrifice ALL my butter for their project! Brownies sure don’t skimp on butter or sugar…but they ARE delicious!
My favorite recipe is in the comments.🤎

Ever seen those really big, green, prickly fruits at the super market? They are called jack fruit, and Zipporah loooves them! Thankful she knows how to prepare this delicious fruit so we can all snack on it today!

Hey Texas friends! We are loving our time in Uganda, but we sure do miss our people,
which is one of the reasons we are super excited that our daughter’s Bible study group from home has made plans to visit us here in Uganda over their spring break!
One of the mamas who will be coming with the group has asked if she could cover my DIY cookie box orders while I’m away this year to help raise funds for their trip! I LOVE this idea! She’s a fellow cookier, in fact, the very one who taught me how to decorate!😁
So, if you want to make some great memories decorating cookies with your family and friends AND you’d like to support this amazing group of teens, then please click the link below to check out all the details!
I will tell you this…she’s only offering 20 kits this time, so please don’t wait to snag yours! I know this group appreciates your support and so do I!🖤🧡🖤🧡
