Richard grew up on a 670 acre cattle farm in Missouri and always had a horse to ride. For 20+ years he has been a volunteer instructor at Westernaires, instructing several types of classes such as liberty, trick, dressage, and equitation. He also volunteers with the Arapahoe Mounted Sheriff Patrol.

Rylee grew up riding horses. You could say it runs in the family, as her dad and business partner, Richard; as well as her husband and three children are also involved with horses. In her teen years she grew up riding in Westernaires and performing with trick teams.

Olivia was the culprit of getting her whole family hooked on horses. She also rode in Westernaires, where she met her husband Skylar. She has previously spent time working with racehorses, broodmares, and foals in Kentucky. Olivia loves camping, especially when she gets to bring her horses with her!

Jaley grew up on horses and has been riding since before she could walk.

She later worked as a trail guide in Rocky Mountain National Park and now combines riding instruction with western lifestyle photography.
