I am amazed to actually see a parent instead of the kids filming. I really enjoyed this. We are a Alabama family. My grand daughter also enjoyed this. She is a JR in HS. Still searching on where she wants to go. Congratulations to your son. And continued blessings for his success.
Hi Bernadette!!! I appreciate that and am so glad you both enjoyed it! Blessings Sis! 🤗🙏🏽💗
Tracie, I am an ASU alumni and was able to learn something from your video. Will be bringing my daughter this Fall 2024. I didn't get this drop off when I started college... thanks for taking the time to share how it should be done!
Awww thank you! God bless and much success to your daughter! 🤗🙏🏽💗💗
I know how you feel sis. We just dropped off our youngest daughter at the University of Alabama last month and she is our last one. My husband and I are now empty nesters. Since being home I've cried in her room a couple of nights. I'm all good now. Praying for our babies!
Hi Legenia!!! Oh wow- we’re in the stage phase, we’re empty nesters too. Yesss! Let us pray for our babies! 🤗🙏🏽🙏🏽💗
Thank You, for sharing. I cried the whole video. I will be taking my son to NCAT next week. I'm really going to miss him. It's something about the boys. My daughter graduated from JSU this past May. So, she's on her journey. Much love to you and your family❤
Hi! Awww 🥰 you’re welcome… Yes- it seems like the girls have a good grasp on things but still concerned with certain things with them but yesss- those boys, especially the baby boys!
MARRIOTT HOTEL & SPA!!!
Yes! 🙌🏽
Good job, Mom!
Thank you! 🤗💗
I am an ASU alumni. I pray your son had a great school year.
He will do great things at ASU! We will always miss them no matter how old they are!
Yesss, definitely! Please keep him in your prayers 🙏🏽💗💗
It is definitely BIG!
Yesss! 🤗
Welcome to The Alabama State University!!! As a student there, he will have a wonderful freshman year even though it's October......:) The band, the sororities and fraternities, the academics, and the extracurricular activities.....college life is a wonderful time in your life. God bless and welcome to Montgomery, Alabama.
Aww 🥰 thank you so much for that, we appreciate you 🤗💗
I am a new subscriber and glad I found you. I look forward to more great content. Recently moved from Montgomery back to our hometown in Birmingham. I pray that God will watch over him and keep him

ASU! Welcome to Hornet Nation!
Thank you so much! 🤗💗
Awww. Its going to be ok mom. My mama cried all the way back home after dropping me (her first born son) off to college. I was saddened as well. But it slowly became the norm and routine and she was overjoyed when I graduated. I said all of that to say it will get better and I wish yall the best. ❤
Hi! Ohhh thank you for that 😊 He is definitely missed 💗💗 So glad your Mom and your journey are doing great! 🤗
Mrs Tracie, Had Me Tears🥲🥲🥲

Aww 🥰 thank you very much! It was hard but we’re thankful for his experience away from home. Thank you for your encouragement. God bless you- have a great weekend 🤗💗
Great video, thanks
Thank you so much!!! 🤗💗
My first time to Buccee's was this past summer when we took a road trip from Atlanta to Las Vegas! Buccee's is AWESOME!
Yessss! Isn’t it the best?? Can’t wait to go back! 🤗💗
Good to see my campus from a visitor perspective
Yes- Awesome, thanks 🙌🏽
What a blessing, what a blessing, what a blessing. I know the feeling, and as a mother, our babies never grow up in our hearts and minds. By the Grace of God, he’s going to be alright. Keep us informed, I love your videos. They are always very relatable and informative. I don’t like the phony, made up, unrealistic stuff. Stay Prayerful.
Hi Loistene!! I appreciate you- I want to bring you all authentic and real content, I love the same thing too and thank you so much for your prayers and well wishes. Have a blessed week! 🤗🙏🏽💗
Congratulations Isaiah! I’m so proud of you! He’s gonna be okay Mama, and so will you, lol. You guys have done a great job of raising him. 🥹👍🏾 🙂
Hi Sis! Oh thank you so much and we appreciate that so much, have a safe and blessed week 🤗🙏🏽🙏🏽💗
OMG, glad to know I'm not the only one going in my baby's room after going to college.
They are truly missed 💗💗💗😢
I love Buccees 🩷🩷. The barbecue brisket sandwich is so good.
Yesss! I can’t wait to go back 🤗🙌🏽
That's the truth @cleaning. I literally washed the walls with a Swiffer and Pine Sol in my son's dorm rooms each year. Freshman year I saw dust on the walls and that was it for me. Deep cleaning every year, regardless of how clean it looked. He's a senior at AAMU this year. Thank you so much for the vids of Jalyn's experience there. They were very helpful to us.
Awesome and congrats to your son on his senior year, many blessings to him. Exactly! Deep clean anyway- I Agree! I’m so glad you enjoyed Jalyn’s A&M videos. I truly enjoyed her time there through her 🤗💗
I’ve been too Buccee’s🎉 Cleanest bathrooms😊
Heeeey!!! Yessss, they were the cleanest bathroom 🚽🤗🙌🏽💗
Hey Tracie! I really loved this vlog! Congratulations to Isaiah on his graduation and entrance/move in to ASU! What a blessing and huge accomplishment! My husband and I watched as we ate breakfast this morning and we reminisced on when took our daughters to college. They are 4 years apart. I thought I was going to lose it… both times we dropped each of them off. They are now both college graduates and wonderful productive citizens with families and we couldn’t be any more proud of them than we are! But I feel you Sis! Those were some very sad but happy moments in time that we will never forget!
Hi there! Oh my goodness, you definitely know my feelings! I’m so happy to hear about you and your husband raising your wonderful daughters and I’m so glad they turned out so well! Mischief love and many blessings to you and your family! 🤗💗
So beautiful, Tracie you always had a family oriented spirit❤ time flys by so fast…..
I remember Jaylyn 😊1st college move- in day. Blessings & Congratulations 🎉 to Isaiah.
Thank you so much, we appreciate your prayers and well wishes! Yes time flies and waits for no one. Have a great week! 🤗💗
Wow, that was a move in. Congratulations to Isaiah getting into one of the best HBCU's in the country. I pray that his college journey will be safe and successful. Thanks for sharing and wishing you and the family all the best .🙏🙏
Thank you so much! We certainly appreciate your prayers and well wishes. Have a blessed and wonderful week 🤗🙏🏽💗
Good morning and Happy Sunday, Tracie! Great vlog, as always. I pray that God continues to bless and cover Isaiah AND his roommate on their new journey. Now that you're an "empty nester," maybe re-start one of your hobbies you put aside while you were "momming" for your children. Thanks for sharing. Peace and many blessings to you and your lovely family. ⚘️
Good morning and Happy Sunday Sis! Thank you so much for the prayer and your encouragement. We are in the adjustment phase but enjoying a bit of free time although the kids are missed, lol. And oh yes- I am looking for to new and old hobbies alike 🙌🏽 Have a blessed week 🤗🙏🏽💗
Hello Tracie 👋🏼
Happy Sunday
Congratulations to Isaiah🎉 Sending wishes for a successful & Prosperous College journey 🙏🏽📚💻 You got this young man 🙌🏽
Thank you so much!!! We appreciate your encouragement and well wishes 🤗💗
Praying for Isaiah and your family. Been there but you know God will see him thru and you guys as well.
Hi Pamela! Thank you for your prayers and well wishes! Oh yes God certainly will. Have a great and blessed week! 🤗🙏🏽💗
So glad you shared with us! You two have raised an awesome young man and I can’t wait to see how Isaiah’s life continues to unfold! Let him know I peeped his hair!! Alright! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much, he is definitely in an experimental phase with hair 👍🏽
I'm Glad to have met your son and his roommate through the Campus Realtalk Ministry.
Oh wow! That’s nice. Blessings to you 🙏🏽
Congratulations Isaiah. I pray your freshman year is safe and fun! Make wonderful memories. I noticed Jaylen representing The Hill. You go girl! #LongLiveThyFame #AAMU
Hiii!!! Thank you so much and yessss, that chile boldly wore that Bulldog garb all up in Hornet 🐝 Nation!!! People certainly commented (with friendly banter) all in good fun though and in Jalyn fashion she gave it right back! 🤭🤣 Thank you so much, we appreciate your prayers and well wishes 🤗🙏🏽💗💗
This was a great comprehensive video. I could not find any great videos before my son went to school.. He’s in the same class as your son. How has your son’s experience been? My son loves ASU!
Wow, you know how to appeal to the emotions 😢 Good vlog and I hope Isaiah will have a great time learning his major at Alabama State. You and the family did a great job receiving scholarships. You were on top of it.
Awww thank you Sis 🥰 I couldn’t help but be a little torn, lol. I’m so thankful, sad and excited all at the same time. I have plenty to do and won’t be sitting around twiddling my thumbs though 🤣☺️ Have an awesome and blessed week! 🤗🙏🏽💗
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much 😊
Congratulations Isiah!! I’m so proud of you! Praying for a successful school year ❤❤
Thank you so much Sis! We appreciate your prayers and well wishes!!! 🤗🙏🏽💗💗
🖤💛💯
🖤 💛 🙌🏽💗
Awww! My son will be starting in the fall at NCAT (class of '28). I believe I am going to cry as well. I love your channel. New subbie!
Hi! Awesome 👏🏽 Congratulations to you guys and I pray he has a great college experience there. Blessings!!! 🤗🙏🏽💗

Awww 🥰 thank you so much! 🤗💗🙏🏽💗💗
Love this❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!! 🤗💗

Thank you ma’am!!! 🤗💗
Congratulations 🎉to Isaiah. Praying for a successful first year for him and his classmates.
I will be in this spot in August 2024 😢😢😢
Aww 🥰 thank you so much and we appreciate your prayers- I pray all goes well with your child/family’s move in process also 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💗
@@traciesplace thank you so much!
Congratulations again Isaiah!!! Praying for a successful, bless and safe College journey!! Man I remember dropping my baby girl off I cried like a baby too Tracie😢
Thank you so much and we appreciate your prayers!!! Yesss it’s really something when that time comes and you drive off and leave them at this place … uuugh 😔 But we’re thankful and pray he does well. Have a blessed and wonderful week 🤗🙏🏽💗💗
I absolutely loved your vlog. I’m ASU alumni and my daughter is a freshman there now. I did all of the things you did, except I STILL can’t go in her room. That’s hard for me. This is the best vlog I’ve seen from a parent perspective.
❤❤
Thank you! 💗💗
love this awww! cute vlog!
Thank you so much- Glad you liked it!!! 🤗💗
@@traciesplace awe ofc!! btw i just subbed to you!
Tracy, I can say the food is better than it was when I was at ASU. My FBLA students enjoyed the food in ASU cafeteria each time they toured the campus.
It’s always a great day to be a hornet.
Yes it is! 🙌🏽💗
I love Bucee’s. My son goes to school in Alabama also and I have to stop every time I drive down. I always spend way too much when I go 😩
Hi! I hear that one is being built about an hour north of us and we are so excited and can’t wait to go up for a field trip visit! Have a blessed week and blessings to your son in college! 🤗🙏🏽
This was a very helpful video for us 1st timers. You held it together well. Were you allowed to hang to put anything on the walls?
Hi! So sorry about the late reply- you can use command strips or something similar for the walls but no nails as I understand. Hoping all goes well with your moving in transition 🤗🙌🏽
? on the twin bed its just the mattress thats xl correct the frame will be the regular twin frame...because Baby that headboard is in my future project 🤣...like you said concrete is cold ❄ air
Yesss, lol You definitely need to block that cold concrete air 😅 The width of the bed is the same as a regular twin but the length of the frame fits the mattress pretty decent length wise. I had to wedge that headboard in there 👍🏽
We have one here in Jacksonville. They are good and have great food. Not your average gas station . I tell you that.
Hey Sis! They are just the best- we didn’t get a chance to look around fully but can’t wait to because we hear there is one being built about an hour away from us up north! EXcited! We’ll be taking a lil field trip up 🙌🏽 Have a blessed week 🤗🙏🏽💗
This was the perfect video! My son is headed to ASU in the fall! Which freshman form was this?
Hi! Awesome- it was Martin Luther King Dorm. Blessings to you (family) and your son! 🤗🙏🏽💗🐝
I didn’t move into MLK until I was a JUNIOR.
Tracie, girl, why do you have me crying watching this video?! I'm sad with you. I know it was very difficult dropping off Isaiah to begin his adult life. The "Empty Nest" syndrome/phase is NO JOKE. It's a bittersweet experience. I've watched people go and GET through it. It's a hard one... Don't listen to anyone who tells you not to cry, and merely, "Get over it." Not everyone is close to his/her children, or even love them; some people want their kids to go and are glad to see them go. I can tell you some stories about some people I know who are emotionally disconnected from their kids, and were therefore, nonchalant about their kids leaving home... Take as much time as you need to process, encourage and strengthen yourself through this period. I'm sure your husband is hurting, too. You guys will get through this together, with God in the center of it all. It'll be a time of great discovery, growth, development and evolution.
My sisters of my youngest nieces and nephews were dreading this phase, but were saved by the pandemic. Their kids remained at home and had to, or could do virtual/remote learning for their first couple of years.
With all of this said, Congratulations to you and your husband for raising such intelligent and wonderful children! Congratulations to Isaiah as he embarks on his college journey-my University of Michigan college years were some of the VERY BEST years of my life. GO BLUE!
As you already know with Jalyn, the years are going to fly by. Before you know it, Isaiah will be graduating from college.
Buc-ee's: Girl, let me tell you... A few months ago, I was lamenting in nostalgia about going to Buc-ee's. My family would stop there during road trips when we were traveling south on our family vacations. I kept seeing TikTok videos about Buc-ee's, which got me so excited, but sad at the same time. I had resolved that I would probably never go to Buc-ee's again, since I don't foresee my family taking any more road trips to the south any time soon. I was like, "Oh, well..."
So, you KNOW the God we serve right?! ... A few weeks ago, I came across a news article that showed up in my feed. Why is Buc-ee's building a location on the land that used to occupy my favorite shopping mall back-in-the-day in MICHIGAN?! Girl, I was SHOCKED and SPEECHLESS! I was beyond excited and ecstatic when I read the news!
I told my Mom what is even more EPIC about the Buc-ee's Michigan location is it's not being built off of a major travel highway like the other Buc-ee's locations. It's being built in a suburb of Detroit that is enclosed within a popular suburban shopping area. God went ALL OUT to bless me with my Buc-ee's location! I can spend the whole day there! When we stopped at Buc-ee's while on the road, we would be there for hours. It's sooo huge and has so much to see, buy and eat there that one could easily be there all day. We travel with a convoy of many vehicles. Hence, it would be fun and convenient for all of us to be able to pull up together at the gas pumps. It's such a welcomed coincidence that you referenced Buc-ee's in this video.
Hi Tanisha! Awww 🥰 thank you!!! Yes- my husband misses him a bit more than he thought he was going to and it’s a bit more of an adjustment than we initially thought- he is truly missed! 💗We think he’s getting used to it pretty well. Oh awesome! You guys are getting a Buc-ee’s too!!! We are also!!! I’m sooo excited! Ours will be near the Columbus Ohio area so not far at all- perfect field trip with the family and I will definitely Vlog about it! 👍🏽 Have a blessed week 🤗🙏🏽💗
@@traciesplace You're welcome, Tracie! I'm happy Isaiah is adjusting well. I'm sure you guys will attend family/parents weekend, which should be coming up soon-if not already. Then, he'll be home for Thanksgiving, which will be here before you know it. After that, he'll take his finals and will be home in the A-clause of December.
And, YESSSS, to the Ohio Buc-ee's as well! TRUST ME: You guys will be able to spend the entire day there-if need be. When we would stop at Buc-ee's, we would be there for HOURS, although we only planned to be there for an hour!
Did they renovate MLK? My son graduated from ASU IN 2023 and I don’t remember any of the freshman male dorms looking like that. Only Facility 1 & 2 were the better upperclassman dorms.
Hi! I don’t think they’ve been renovated lately- new updates are needed 👍🏽
Thank you for sharing. My son is anticipating attending ASU in the fall. Do you mind sharing what dorm this is? I don't know if they will even get a choice or if it's the luck of the draw.🤷🏾♀️
How you tried the brisket
Are the dorms good? Im seriously considering ASU and I just want to know.
Hi there! Abercrombie is somewhat outdated, MLK is not bad and Card may be the best for freshman. Facility #1 as I understand is the best one. Dunn is pretty decent.
@@traciesplace thank you!
The dorms are great. I really miss Benson.
