About us...
We are Justin and Heather - high school sweethearts. After 6 years of dating we married in 1998 . On October 3, 2000 Brady was born into our family followed by Madison on October 9, 2002. After much prayer and a complete leap of faith, we began our first adoption journey in March of 2008. On April 16th, 2009 Blake entered our family from Vladivostok, Russia. We now feel called to return to Vladivostok one more time to complete our family with a fourth child. We documented our first journey on a blog that is now set to private. On that blog we share our day-to-day happenings. We look forward to sharing our second adoption journey with you through this blog. Thank you for checking in on us!

WOW! What a difference you can see in him already! How precious! He does look like you! :) God's so amazing that way! Just watched previews of Dateline for tonight- they featured "Boy From Baby House 10" - watching that, then seeing your faces are really making me cry! Let's keep bringing these kids home, 1 at a time! Praying for your safe trip home soon, and for a smooth adjustment!
SO ADORABLE!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!

I am sure you will do great, just like Brady and Madison do! Congrats Overstreet Family of six! Boston you are a real cutie! Congrats on becoming a member of a really great family. All six of you are very very lucky!

Congrats and many blessings for the new Overstreet Family of 6!!! Thank you for sharing you journey!!
Congratulations ~ Boston is such a handsome little guy! The changes between trip 1 & 2 are amazing!
Congratulations on your new son. I always thought the 10-day wait was one of the worst parts; becoming more attached and yet concerned something/someone could stop the adoption.
