How we met and a Windows Phone giveaway (#meetyours).

February 7, 2013 by Michelle Hinckley |

I love a good love story and so do my new peeps at Window’s Phone central.  I can’t believe I’ve been blogging for almost 5 years now and I don’t recall ever sharing my story of how my beau and I met.  Back when I was a wee young thing and had just completed my first year in college I decided to make plans to take a summer detour to BYU-Hawaii.  I told a classmate of my plans and she said told me all about this boy that she was quite smitten with who was over in Hawaii.  When I arrived I ran in to him, introduced myself, and told him I knew “Sally-Sue”.  He really didn’t give me the time of day and my opinion of him wasn’t very high.  Throughout the summer I would run in to him on campus and say a quick “hello”.  At the end of summer my dad said enough was enough and it was time to come home.  I checked my campus mailbox one last time before heading to the airport and found a letter  from him proclaiming his crush on me.  He apologized and explained that his aloofness was a case of intimidation and hoped that if our paths ever crossed again that he would like to take me out.  WHOA!  We never spoke until 1 1/2 years later when I returned back to paradise.  The rest is history…

J and M in Hawaii
