That feeling you have when you are on your horse, it’s like Christmas with my Mom bringing the magic alive! Jesus bless us as we enter this season of birth and renewal. Joyeux Noel

So very sad to hear about the passing of It’s a Southern Thing. What a significant loss for Amy and Kevin Gumz, as well as for everyone who has been connected to his lineage. This amazing stallion sired so many wonderfully talented Mini Pies! My heartfelt condolences go out to both Amy and Kevin on the loss of Moonpie. I’ve been fortunate enough to own six of his incredible minis and have another one on the way! Thank you, Moonpie, for a great run and for leaving such a lasting legacy.

With great sadness, Kevin and Amy Gumz and Gumz Farms announce the passing of Its A Southern Thing or Moonpie (as known by most). A successful show horse and leading sire, he leaves a legacy that most can only hope to experience. We are blessed to have had this magnificent horse in our lives and his impact on the industry will live on in the show arenas and breeding barns. Thank you to the breeders, owners and exhibitors for not only reaching but exceeding goals that most stallions will never attain. A heartfelt thank you the care providers and support team that made his life a better place for him and us.

Jackson’s friend Kasiah just walked out and hugged on the Ranch horses! Why I love our breeding program to this day is because of the gentle nature of our horses! Prince, Leotyne and Sissy🥰

The Barn Cats! They deserve the utmost respect! They have to deal with the raccoons, opossums, coyotes, mice, snakes, and all for the horses who nuzzle them! If you have barn cats post a picture of them!

This is Paisley Miller with Believe In The Good, aka "Calvin Klein." They were 10 & Under Trail Champions at Sun Circuit, as well as Reserve High Point in their division. "She’s crazy for horses," says her grandmother, Ingrid Miller. "My husband says it’s a genetic defect! Aren’t we blessed?!"

Thank you to Ingrid for sharing this sweet photo! If you have a great photo of the day, please send it by email: [email protected].

Buddy has been one of the best horses ever added to our barn family! He took care of both my boys in the show pen and riding around the ranch! Safe, affectionate and always one to do his job to the best of his ability. Austin, Peg and I delivered him today to his new friend, Grace Janssen of Desoto! Grace is the most charming young lady and so ready to make Buddy’s stay comfortable! She had welcome signs at the entrance of the stables and on his new stall! Austin and I were so very happy! Thank you Amber Henderson for introducing me to the Janssen’s💯 Lesley Karnes Janssen

Throwback to a Kansas Quarter Horse show in 2003. Austin Mckechnie was an infant guessing about 3 months old at the time. The Horse was Starring Cool. Sweet boy! I loved working with the babies!

One of my favorite memories from this show was my friend Laurie Reeve Bock gave Austin his first pair of western boots! Laurie and I met through Leadership Kansas and also helped us find our first horse trailer in Garden City.

She was such a kind and loving friend. I am grateful to have had her in my life. She lost her battle to cancer in 2009. Having support in the horse showing world is what makes it fun and she always did that so well. 🙏

When you sell a horse and he never is transferred out of your name on his AQHA papers, you worry about him…until you hear from a completely different owner in Georgia! Thank the lord this wonderful family has him and reached out to me! Holly Bakke
