Justing pulled in the drive. He had on a plad green shirt, a pair of jeans, a brown hat, belt, and cowboy boots. The cattle brayed in the trailer and he hit the side. "Quiet!" he yelled. That silence that followed only lasted for about ten seconds before the cattle started up again. Justin rolled his eyes and leaned against the trailer hoping his mother would arrive soon.

Marsha drove into her yard, Deltah whinnying to the other horses out in the field. She stopped the truck by the field and turned it off. Getting out she waved at the guy with the cows in the trailer, "must be Koras son" she said to herself opening the back of the trailer, she stepped in and untied Deltah. Taking her out she led her into the field and untied her, then walked over to a gate and let the mares into a pen right beside the outdoor arena, no reason to use the indoor one while the sun is out.
The Arabian mares followed eachother into the arena, spying some oats on the ground they stopped there and ate while they waited for whatever was going to happen. When Deltah was finally untied she whinnied to the other mares and trotted into the pen behind Marsha, until Marsha stopped at the gate and Deltah continued to come in. After that Marsha closed the gate, making sure the mares stayed in. Now to unload the cows into the arena....

Kora pulled in behind Marsha. Almost immediately she spotted Justin in the drive. She waved at him and then went to park. Hopping out of the trailer she went to see her son. "Justin, once we get the cattle in the ring I want you to ride Dollar and do turn back for me. I'll ride the mares on the cattle. I won't push them but watch and see which ones move best and most naturally." A broad grin appeared on her face. "After that, if you wanna show Dollar off to Marsha you may." She winked at him and laughed.
Kora walked back over to Marsha. "Marsha, the easiest way for us to get the cattle into the arena is to pull the trailer about half way into the trailer and then have me keep the cattle in the back on Dollar. Sound good to you?"

Justin stared at the girl that got out of the truck. 'Hot,' was all he could think. His mother smirked when she seen his expression. The only thing he really caught was that the girl's name was Marsha. "Yeah yeah, alright."
After his mother left he leaned back on the trailer and tipped down his hat so that she couldn't see him watching her. All she could see was a toothless smile on his face.

OOC: ok im gonna change Marsha to Kelley lol and get a new pic for her, I just felt like changing it for some reason. Ok This is Kelley lol Kelley spotted the guy staring at her and smiled. Though he was seemingly older than her by quite a bit, so she didn't pay much attention to him, she just wanted to see what her mares would actually do with the cows, especially because it was their first time around cows in ages. The mares all looked up when they heard the cows, though luckily none spooked, Deltah whinnied back at the cows, wondering what was in the trailer. She saw Dollars head in the trailer and whinnied again, swishing her tail and prancing about the pen exitedly, he was a funny little colt to fool around with, at his age he didn't know the difference between serious flirting and just-for-fun-flirting.

Kora waved to Justin to tell him he could back the truck up to the arena. She was already sitting upon Dollar in the arena so that she could move the cattle around and settle them. When the door to the trailer unlatched six cattle poored out of the back and ran to the far side of the large arena. Kora worked Dollar through them settling them. When she thought they were settled enough she cut two out of the herd. One peeled off and she began to cut the other. Dollar worked flawlessly. The flurries were amazing and deep. When Kora was happy with him she let the cow back to the herd quitting Dollar. She let him cattle back to the near side of the arena and dismounted him. Justin hopped on his back and went to a turnback position. "Ok Kelly, The cattle are ready and so is Justin so whichever mare you want to work first is fine by me." Kora smiled. This day was going to be fun. ooc: Tell me which horses are going to be good with cattle and which ones are not going to be good with cattle and I'll rp that into the next post.

Kora thought for a minute looking at all the gorgeous mares she had to choose from. "How about we start with these three." Kora pointed at the mares she wanted and went from there. *Kayana, Sadeek, Raho(I assumed they were all mares)* "If you will get them out of the pasture I can pull one of my cutting saddles from my trailer." She had just the perfect saddle. It was smaller than her normal saddles and had a arab tree. She didn't know why she had that one in there because it had been ages since she trained an arab for cutting but it was a good thing she still had it.
Justin watched his mother and the beauty converse. He was day dreaming and wasn't paying attention so he didn't notice Dollar sneeking forward toward the cattle. Dollar wanted to cut and he wanted to see if he could get away with it.

"Ok" Kelley said walking over to her tack shed, she grabbed three mare halters and headed back out. She climbed over the gate and haltered the three mares. Opening the gate this time she led the three mares out, making sure the others didn't try to follow. She led the prancy arab mares over to the arena and tied them outside the gate. She spotted Dollar heading over to the cows and pointed, "Dollar is after the cows!" she said inbetween chuckles, what a funny stud.
The mares pranced about on their leads, happily leading out of their pen. They weren't too sure what the cows were doing there with a horse stalking behind them. Keyana* whinnied to the horse, perking her ears up.
Kelley looked up when Keyana whinnied to Dollar, "Oh, and Keyana is for sale if your intrested in buying her, if you do I'm ok with giving you an extra free breeding to one of my mares, or maybe a cross from an arab stallion and QH mare." Kelley mentioned while patting Keyana. She desperatley needed to sell her before the winter came, hay was just getting higher and higher.

Kora held the saddle along with a blanket and myler bit and bridle to put on the mares. She also had boots for the horses so that their hocks and tendons would be protected. When Kelley mentioned that Dollar was after the cows she looked to her son. He was daydreaming. "Justin." Her look was stern as she snapped his name. Flinching he smirked and pulled Dollar back.
Kora went over Keyana with a hard brush. The mare wasn't that dirty and the dirt came off easy.
"Oh and Keyana is for sale if your interested in buying her. If you do I'm ok with giving you an extra free breeding to one of my mares or maybe a cross from an arab stallion and QH mare."
It was a good offer so Kora readily agreed. "That sounds good to me. I'll take her, but I'll only have the other breedings you already offered. I have too many horses to train already." Kora laughed and through her tack onto Keyana. The bit slipped easily into the mare's mouth and it seemed like she accepted it. Then Kora mounted the mare. Hopefully this mare would do well since she had just agreed to buy her. If things went smoothely here Kora might ask Kelley to breed her mares here where they will be more comfortable and then just transport them to her barn for mare care.

Kelley smiled, at least the mare would be sold, but she didn't pay any attention to Justin and his daydreaming, just wondering how the mares would do. She climbed up onto the fence and sat, ready to watch the mares and find out how they did. Hopefully well.
Sadeek & Raho danced about on their leads, whinnying at Dollar curiously. Keyana swished her tail calmly as the unfimiliar lady brushed her, she wasn't too sure of what to think, but the lady seemed nice so she stood patiently waiting for what was to happen next.

Kora easily finished tacking her new mare Keyana up. Putting her foot in the stirrup and pulled herself up. The mare was smaller than she was used to but sh seemed steady enough. Kora warmed her up with some bends and circles. Moving into some jogging and then a quick canter. Since the mare had never done this before she wnted to make sure that she was nice and loose before she did anything strenuous. Slowly she moved the mare into the herd of cattle.
ooc: Sine she was your mare to start with make up how she handles the cutting thing.
