We had a wonderful Christmas in Texas with my in-laws. All of my husband's siblings live within walking distance of my mother-in-law's house. So, Christmas is a lively affair. The family house was built in the early 1900's and has stately rooms, perfect for holiday celebrations. On the front door was a spineless, prickly pear wreath. (Very Texas appropriate.) The staircase was decorated with long bows of magnolia leaves and red wired ribbon. In the stone walled, and slate floored den was a 12 foot tall Christmas tree covered in large, multi-colored lights. (Notice the wrought iron agave chandelier and agave sconce to the right of the tree. The fireplace screen and fireplace tools also have the agave motif, though I some how managed not to photograph them.)
