We all know the colors of the holiday season: red, green, and maybe even white or gold. However, members of Longhorn Nation have found ways to incorporate a little burnt orange into their holiday décor. We received photos from Longhorns who know how to show their Texas pride no matter what time of year it is.

“Here’s my annual Texas Christmas tree! I love having a separate tree just for all our UT ornaments.” 

Ginny Bowman, DNP ’21, Life Member, Rosharon, Texas 

“Here are a couple of pictures of my UT tree. I love having an entire tree that’s all Longhorn!”

Frosty the Snowman has never looked better! 

Stacy Cochran, BS ’97, Life Member, Milton, Georgia 

“Each year, as one of five trees we display, my basement gets the burnt-orange and white treatments.  We moved to Atlanta from Dallas seven years ago and are looking forward to the move to the SEC!”  

Melissa Manohar, BS ’05, Austin 

We think every Christmas tree should be topped with a football.

“I’m a professional communications teacher at United South High School and wanted to send pictures of the UT Christmas decor in my classroom.” Talk about inspiring future Longhorns! 

Happy Holidays and hook ’em Horns!
