I smiled at Silver, and watched as she fussed over her new big colt, and he clearly already was taking a very fond liking of her. Walking past Lana I gave a quick smile, and was happy for the fact she liked Celeste, for she was a beautiful, and much suited to her new owner. Finally I spotted SpiritedBrumby and jogged over, and excited humm within the air. "Hey!" I said as there was no need for words as I walked her over to a beautiful mare, her tall chestnut colt at her side. He had a shimmiering gold-like pelt, that any fur company would die for, and I gave him a quick hug before he scooted away and looked under his mother's stomach at us, extremely precausious. "Oh come Hawke, she won't bite." I said to the week old colt, who had his ears forward, but his eyes were wide, and he stood a little oddly, as if he was ready for us to attack. "Sorry about him, he is a little bit shy." I said with a giggle, as I grabbed a peice of apple, and he slowly came over to investigate. I reached out and grabbed his halter, and he tried to drag me away to hide agian, but I held on and stood my ground. I let Sb grab the halter as I ran and got his lead, quickly clipping in onto his halter I handed it to her. " There are brushes and treats in the box. I think it will just take some time for that handsome little colt to adjust to someone new. He is a bit of a shy horse. Not scared mind you, just shy around people." I said as I placed a lemonade beside her, and went and walked around, seeing how people were doing.

Maria sighed and clipped Glory's lead onto her halter before clipping Flirt's onto her. Looking up at Erica, neither she or herself knew what they would be getting themselves into. "Lets get it over and done with." Maria said, giving Flirt a good pat on the neck before looking up at Erica and Smiley, who was standing right beside her colt, unmoving. Maria led both Flirt and Glory towards the bathing unit, tieing Flirt up first and then Glory beside her. She turned round and waited for Erica. They would have to start together, just so they wouldn't scare the foals.

I leave Major long enough to slip through the rails and find the small shelf with the tools for WithaTwist and Major. I got a soft brush and the tiny foal halter and lead rope just Major's size, and walk out again. Major has finished nursing and comes dashing up to inspect the strange new things in my hand. He's actually done a lot of work with the halter, lead and brush, as I've spent as much time as I can with him on them, but he still seems to think every time I take them out they'll be different.
I slide the halter on and hold him by the lead rope as I gentley start brushing him. He leans into it with a comfortable sigh, content to be with his mom, a familiar human, and the worlds best thing in the world, a genuine bonified itch-remover.

I smiled happily as I soon clipped a lead to Smiley's halter, looking over at the chestnut colt by her side. As soon as he noticed me looking at him, he nickered to me. Reaching out for something to give him, or for something to find within my pockets. I smiled warmly at him and ruffled his short mane. I stroked Smiley only moments later, I had always wanted a horse related to her. Having now a foal from her was great, that foal could now meet his grandmother as well. How great a day would that be, when both Lion and Attraction met. Snapped out of my thoughts as I felt the nudge of Lion again. Smiling happily down at him and then beginning to walk to the bathing unit, looking at the grey mare and her black filly ahead of us. As they turned into the mare barn we were only a few steps behind, with the occasional stopping because Lion was nudging me for some treats. Finally leading the two there, Lion announced our presence. I laughed gently to myself as I watched him walk ahead of me and Smiley. I tied Smiley up and then Lion up beside her, he lipped my head thinking it was a treat as I tied him up. A warm smile on my face, looking at Maria with the same smile.

I watched as Maria and Erica headed away to go wash the foals and mares, and I saw Silver and Major. I looked over and Nick, Lana, and Steph, and SB, and WSB, and Lauren, and then went inside, bringing out a basket of apples when I returned. I sat down by the tree, and polished up an apple, before taking a huge bite, the juic e dribbling down my chin, as I whiped it away. I ate the whole thing, then grabbed another. There were crisp and crunchy. My favourite, and soon they were Rio's favourite as the black colt came over to help me rid the fruit.

I walked over to Serenade and the filly watched me curiously. I reached out a hand for her to sniff as I talked softly. "Hey baby. That's a good girl. Aren't you pretty." When she took a few steps forward I slowly raised my hand to run her neck. Her dark eyes inpsected me curiously and she nudged my pocket. I chuckled and pulled out a baby carrot and offered it to her in the palm of my hand. "Well aren't you a smart one," I teased as I rubbed my hand up and down her neck and across her face. She showed no resistance so I continued to run her for a few minutes before giving her another carrot. I reached into the nearby box and pulled out a curry. I made small circles across her shiny coat as Serenade nibbled on the grass. I was so excited about finally getting a Boo foal. I switched to a soft brush after only a few minutes because she was already shining. I smiled at Matabon and called, "I'm tempted to put her in the back of my pick up and bring her home."

I laughed at Lauren, and through her an apple. Okanagen apples. Best there are!" I said as I ate yet another. "Hehe, Steph he is going to havw to grow up a little. Poor little guy. I bet he will get bigger, everyone pics on him." I said sadly as I stared pointedly at Rio. He didn't realize he was making Shadow scared when he play fought, for Shadow was not the kind of colt that enjoyed playfighting.

She sighed, Aww..well, I'd really like to know when I'll be able to take him home. She patted his neck, and smiled, enjoying the time she had with him now.

OOC: In a long while. Its usually a good 4 RL months between my sales.
I watched Becki leave, and then went over to Erica. "Oh well." I said as I took Glory, and lead her back to the pastures where I let her go with her mother Flirt. I went over to Silver and Lauren. "Hows it coming?" I asked as I gave the foals a pat, then went over to Lana and Celeste, and Nick and Willow, before also checking in on SB and WSB.

I resisted the urge not to jump up and down on the spot with glee. He was such a beautiful colt, one of the best I'd ever seen. Holding onto the lead Hawke kept it tight and was only eventually coaxed to come closer with the treats Matabon had left. I brought the brush very lightly down over his coat and at first he dodged and moved away form it like it was a big scary monster. With more treats he eventually stood still-ish and let me brush him with the brush and my hand. "Yeah you know exactly how to get what you want don't you" I said to the shy but pehraps cheeky little foal.
