When To Know When To Walk Away

We've been in negotiations for over 2 weeks. On Friday we reached an agreement. Early Saturday we signed our part of the contract. Since Saturday we have been waiting for the seller to sign the contract. As of now, no such luck. The selling Realtor has hardly even spoken with our Realtor, hence the 2+ weeks of negotiations. Do we keep waiting and hope that everything is going to work out? We haven't even had an inspection yet that could still go horribly wrong. At what point should we be willing to walk away from a house? To what point should we continue to pursue it?

House Hunting is not fun.

Engagement Party

And then there was a baseball themed engagement party. Our parents did a great job carrying out the theme through everything. There was an official Aramark pricing sign, a real hot dog machine (you an see Cracker Jacks in the back) and everyone was in baseball attire. And how cute is the story of us told in baseballs?

The party was held in April. In, fact it was opening day for the Cubs. April is also the month I started working for the minor league baseball team. It's the month that I asked my husband out. It's the month that we first played beer pong together with friends. It's the month we went on our first date for dinner at Cheesecake Factory. It's the month we first played tennis together. April was a great month in 2005 and it was a great month in 2008 when we formally celebrated our engagement with friends.
