I have to agree with Paul, Steve.  Your plant isn't Bacopa 
caroliniana, but it sure has nice flowers.

However, B. caroliniana is found in Texas according to the USDA 
distribution map.  Here's an excellent photo that could help you ID 
it if you ever think you come across it again (sorry for the 
incredibly long link...the pic is worth some cutting and pasting, 
though):
