We are now officially empty nesters!

The kids are both off to college! So my wife and I are empty nesters; at least, until the kids come home during holiday breaks.

It's a brave new world for RodeoSchro! I hope my wife still finds me entertaining!

Thanks! Party at my house!

In fact, party on my BLOCK. Of the eight houses on our street, three of us became empty nesters this week. Old folks gonna RAWK!

But I am SO excited for my kids. Both are at Ole Miss, and if there's a cooler place than Oxford MS, I haven't found it.

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

falloff If she does, we'll have to have a SERIOUS talk!

I loved almost every moment of our kids' journey into adulthood and I'm REALLY going to miss not having a high school student. But I am looking forward to some opportunities that have literally just opened up today.

God works in the most wonderful ways!

Tonight is Night One, and we're both so tired from moving them into college that Night One is going to consist of a glass of wine and watching "The Big Bang Theory" until we fall asleep.

But NIGHT TWO will be a different story!

LOL.

My guess is that in 4-5 years, they will both be in grad school. Probably going for MBAs, but I can see either of both or them maybe going law.

I doubt they're getting off the payroll this decade, LOL.

LOL, thanks! I scrubbed clean my son's room last week. It's so clean that I don't think I'll let him back in it, so I might need some of those sleeping bags!
