Hi BarbaraAnn,
Welcome to Birdforum, from another member in Texas!
I've just had a look at your bird and decided it is a female Northern Cardinal. The crest on the top of her head appears to be laid down instead of up, but this is the only bird it could be with the coloring and that bright orange bill. Here's a link to a photo of a female in our Gallery:

Cardinals are very common birds in our backyards in Texas.
