For DeAnn

About a month ago, my family (without me - can't remember why I wasn't there) went to the Original Pancake House in Eden Prairie for breakfast. While there, Adrian Peterson came in with his family. My sister, never being one to just sit by and watch life go by walked up to the table and asked one of the people at the table  a question.

"Is that Adrian Peterson?"

"Might be," responded the man. 

"Oh, are you a Viking too?" she asked.

The man turned to her with a smile on his face and said, "No maam, I'm his daddy! You know what I like you. Adrian, get over here and take a picture with this lady, I like her."

I guess JG walked up to him and said, "I have you on my wall!" (He has a Fathead of him in his room). Adrian was very humble and was so kind especially to stand and take photos with these crazies.

I AM SO JEALOUS!!!!!!! Those are the best pictures and he is just so dang CUTE! I swear when we go the cities next year for a game, I heard through the grapevine of the hotel where the players stay and I AM GOING TO STAY THERE TOO! Any chance of meeting him would be AWESOME! You guys are so lucky to see him twice. I think it was great of him to take a photo with you. I may just print these out so they remind me to never give up!

Ok, NOW you've got the Monkey's attention. He says Adrian is one of the best running backs in the NFL. He also says he's coming to visit...you've got snow AND NFL players.
