My family and I have an annual tradition of driving around and looking at Christmas lights every year. You would think that after almost every December night of my entire life living in the same town, the displays would get repetitive and boring – but I never seem to be disappointed. I suppose that’s because we just know how to do Christmas the right way here in Texas. Check out these 10 amazing homes that are completely decked out – one of them might be right in your backyard!

10) The Roberts family in Andrews didn't stop with their house - they had to cover their entire lawn, too!

All of these lights, including a 75-foot mega tree, are synchronized to a five-song continuous loop.
9) The Interlochen neighborhood in upper Arlington is a spectacle this time of year.

More than 200 homes band together to create a dazzling tour with over 107 acres of magical lights.
8) Although not a home, I think the Johnson City Courthouse still has a rightful spot on this list.

And these trees in the town square are quite possibly the most stunning thing I've ever seen.
