From this adorable young pup...
to this strapping 6-year-old.
Happy Birthday today to our faithful boy, Custer!!
You came into our newlywed world 6 years ago...
(Look at those young kids!)
And our parents thought we were crazy taking on such a charge so early on in marriage! But little did they know that 6 months later, we'd be saying goodbye to GG for a whole year!!
And yet you would remain behind and be my buddy; my faithful, furry friend through the long months. You licked my tears (he really did this the night GG left!), you trained with me for two marathons, you slept beside me when my beloved was absent...
You have now endured the birth and growth of two young boys with another on the way. And you do it every day with a tail that wags and a devotion so true. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our Gasperini-Ville.
Happiest of birthdays to our Cus-a-Bus. We love you so!

Your pictures are fabulous. Look at you as a young newlywed!
Also, you're looking as radiant as ever as a pregnant mama. Praying for all of you and appreciate your prayers so much.
You're a dear.
happy birthday to custer! what an adorable puppy/dog he was/is =) i love the photo of you and GG as newlyweds--super cute!
I must be very hormonal....your tribute to Custer brought tears to my eyes. Never under estimate the loyalty and love we receive from our pets, and what an impact they make on our lives. Happy 6th, Custer!!!
So cute! I can't believe that it was not so long ago that your family was unsure of whether GG would be re-deployed to Iraq - what a tough period of time that was for you guys, and you endured it with such grace and patience. You guys are amazing and your boys are so blessed to have you as parents!
You look great, B-Mama - late pregnancy suits you very well!
How sweet!! Happy birthday, Custer!
Happy B-day Cus-Cus from Gracie Lou and her family! Gracie really misses playing with you. Your family is really lucky to have such a fantastic dog to take care of them and your brothers will love playing with you as they get older!
Krissy, you are so sweet to still send love to Custer, who pooped his way through a weekend spent at Donny's place years ago! You poor thing. Custer still feels so bad for getting so sick... :( lol.
Oh B! I got teary eyed too reading about Custer b/c it brought back so many memories of our Sandy girl getting me through our first deployment. Dogs are THE BEST! Always so happy to see you and boost your mood. Custer is especially wonderful with his great disposition and manners! I loved how he would sit on the stairs on good ole Light Fighter Drive!
