Saturday was the 2011 Christmas Parade in Ozark MO. Yes I know, its not even Thanksgiving yet, but hey its the tradition here in Ozark to have it early before the weather gets too cold for the kids to get out and enjoy it. Years ago the parade was held during the day and attendance wasn't that good. Now that its held at night thousands of people come from all over to watch the parade. In case you weren't able to attend, here is a short video we took to give you a taste of the celebration. Sorry the pictures are a little dark.

Janice Markley - Noevir Skin Care Consultant A couple of years ago I joined a local BNI group in Ozark, MO, The Buck Starts Here.  If you're not familiar with BNI, it's a group of local business owners who meet once a week with the sole purpose of referring business to each other.  It operates under the "giver's gain" philosophy.  It provides us an opportunity to get to know each other and how we work in our respective professions, so when the opportunity arises, we have someone that already know and trust to refer our friends, relatives and clients to.  It has been a really great experience for me.About a year ago, Janice Markley joined our group.  There really is no way for me to describe Janice....you'd have to meet her in person to really understand how truly unique and amazing she...

As the fall continues, the colors keep getting more beautiful.  In a few weeks, we'll see treelined streets full of more great foliage.

Ozark Missouri is well-known for its numerous antique malls , shops, and stores. With over a dozen antique stores its a great place to shop.    As you peruse the malls, it will undoubtedly bring back warm memories of your parents or grandparents homes and of a more relaxed pace of life. I’m not THAT old but I see things in there that I remember growing up that are now collectible. You can spend days looking for that unusual item or a whole houseful if you want. Ozark MO is a great place to shop for antiques for the serious collector or casual treasure hunter.   If you are passing through on your way to Branson or Eureka Springs, spend some time in Ozark. You'll be glad you did!

Antique Emporium - Ozark Mo Marketplace - Ozark Antique Shops   Ozark Missouri is located approximately 6 miles south of Springfield Missouri on Hwy 65.  It's a great place to shop and see all the localhome operated antique shops.  The Antique Emporium is one of the first shops you'll enjoy as you enter Ozark.   Located one block off Hwy 65, just south of Lambert's Cafe, The Antique Emporium is filled with rows and rows of old dishes, furniture, jewelry, toys and other collectible items. I'm not a history buff, but I have many old dishes handed down from my grandparents to me.  I'm always looking for different styles of antique salt cellars.....I inherited a collection from my Dad.

Lemon Drop Cafe And Tea Room - Ozark Marketplace - Ozark Mo Real Estate   Working from our office in Ozark, many times we are asked about the great places to dine in Ozark.  For a special lunch, it's the Lemon Drop Cafe and Tea Room.   The Tea Room is only open a few hours each day, servicing great salads, sandwiches and the best desserts. The Lemon Drop Cafe and Tea Room is close to several antique stores, Heather Hill Farms and Lambert's Cafe.  So park your car and enjoy an afternoon of lunch and shopping, all in one location. Oh yes, bring your spouse.  I bet they will enjoy the lunch as well.

Heather Hill Farms Ozark Mo - Ozark Marketplace - Ozark Mo Real Estate   One of my favorite stores in Ozark is Heather Hills Farms.  Being a cheese lover, I can walk in and check out all the different cheeses and take home wonderful fresh cheese.  They even have low fat and low sodium cheese.   Occasionally there is live entertainment and wine tasting events.   The store was opened in 2002 and and is currently located south of Lambert's Cafe in Ozark.  It has been family owned and operated by Bob, Heather and daughter Emily.  With the waiting period to get into Lambert's, you can shop at Heather Hill Farms and still enjoy the great food at Lambert's.   Some of the other items they carry is great soups sauces, rubs, Jellies and pickled beets.
