Best Tree's for East Texas Front Yard?

[ATI]

I LOVE me some Live Oak.
Low Maintenance, good shade and almost an evergreen. Just very slow growing....

[Ouch]

Pine trees are like magnolias... they're really pretty in the neighbor's yard, way over there.

Monterrey oaks.grow pretty fast. Fertilize each year.

x2 (a.k.a. Mexican white oaks). They planted a few of those at the TJC campus a few years ago and they had exploded when I went back there this past fall.

x2!!!! Magnolia has to be one of my favorites and depending on the variety you plant they can grow from 18" to 36" per year

I had to cut down a 25 year old live oak that i planted with my bare hands due to oak wilt.

My front yard is roughly 125'x135'. The entire fenced area is 330'x135'.

Which flowering trees would y’all recommend for the same generic area? I really like mimosa trees but have no experience with them.
