In this special holiday bonus episode of The Texan Edge, Tweed steps outside the usual Texas stories to share a universal memory from his childhood—one that glows with warmth, faith, and the simple magic of Christmas. “Candles in the Window” is a heartfelt reflection on the quiet traditions that shaped us, the stories our parents passed down, and the little lights that still guide us home. It may not be Texas-specific, but its spirit fits right in with the way we live, love, and lean on each other across the Lone Star State. Settle in for a gentle, nostalgic story that speaks to the season and to something deeper we all share, wherever we call home.
