DE PERE, WI (WTAQ) – College moving day at St. Norbert was special for one family from Menomonee Falls.
While most parents were helping one of their young adults move into the next phase of their lives, the Earing’s were moving three of their four daughters to the same dorm.
With smiles on their faces, the Earings triplets arrived at their dorms together as part of the largest class in school history.
Madison, Taylor, and Kylie have done a lot as a trio and now will go to college together.
Kylie says things just fell into place for them to all go to the same school.
“I decided first and she (Madison) decided next.”
Taylor said she was last to decide.
“I thought I did not want to be the one that made us all go to the same place, but we are just really clicky I guess.”
Taylor and Madison will have a little more in common with each other. They both signed on to play softball for the Green Knights, and ended up with rooms right next to each other, while Kylie, the dancer of the group, is two floors down.
“I met my roommate on the facebook page so we knew each other before now.”
St. Norbert College President Brian Bruess says it was very unique and very special to have the Earing sisters.
“Just think of that as a parent, to have three daughters all come to St. Norbert College at once.”
The girls are close, but they are taking the whole experience in by living with someone else.
The girls father, Mike Earing had three vehicles loaded up and was preparing for a long morning of unloading. girl’s pleasantly surprised to see volunteers quickly take all three girls stuff to their rooms in a matter of minutes.
“I have been working out for a couple of weeks to get ready for this,” Earing joked. “Can you imagine having to haul stuff for three people, it was a great surprise.”
The volunteers, the Bruess Brigade, spent all morning to the same for all the new students and their families.
Moving three girls on the same day will leave their home in Menomonee Falls a little more empty.
Now the Earings parents will have just one daughter left at home, but Taylor says the family already has a plan to fill the void.
“This weekend my mom and my sister are going to look at dogs. We are getting replaced with a dog.”
Classes begin on Monday for students at St. Norbert College.
