Congrats and Enjoy it.

Hope he gets into grad school next year. It's seriously cramping my style.

Funny story. Just before my daughter went off to college leaving the nest, my wife was despondent over the thought of no kids at home. She was talking to someone who gave her good advice. This lady told her, "honey, if you like your husband even a little bit you are going to love it".
We've loved it ever since.

God bless em, I love my kids dearly and enjoy seeing them but I ready to have my life back. If the real estate market wasn't so bad I'd sell the big house and move into a condo on the water.
 
sounds like a party is in order. Fire those UDS's up and slap on some animal flesh.

Congrats! We have been empty nesting for about 5 years. Just remember the wife may look at it differently. LOL Got to be a sensitive smoker my friend.
 
Congrats you'll love it not at first by you will learn to like it. We did even down sized the house we lived in then the darn kids moved back in. So we bought a compound and they live up in the front house and we have the whole back house.
