Day 7: Day of Rest (:

Aztec has decided that we are going to get along just fine-- thank goodness!  She is trusting me now, which is a major relief since I was beginning to think that she didn't really care for domestication.  This morning a Purina Feed Rep. came out to my house to evaluate my horses and recommend feed for them.  He evaluated Lucy, Aztec, Chey, and two others.  I was more concerned about the Mustangs, though.  I didn't feel like they are getting enough vitamins and minerals for growing yearlings.  He recommended that I feed them Purina Equine Strategy, so in the next few days, Dad and I are going to pick up twenty free bags of feed for my babies.  At the end of the 90 day challenge, Jon Law will come back and reevalute them to see if Purina Feeds really makes a difference.  (:

Here's the best part!  For Jon to weigh Aztec and take her height, he had to touch her.  AND SHE LET HIM!  I was so proud of my girl.  Not only did she let me walk right up and catch her, she LED all the way into the barn and STOOD PERFECTLY STILL for him to measure her.  I was without words when my girl just chilled out with me.  It was so perfect. <3

Since she was such a good baby for the feed rep, I let her have the day off.  Seven days of intense work is too much, so she got to sit around and eat hay all day.  Not that she minded.  I did brush her down, which she was perfect for. 

I took some day seven pictures of her this evening.  Enjoy (:

She had a fly on her eye, so I snapped a picture!

Cute little zebra stripe legs!
