Welcome to Jingle Jangle Christmas and Mr. Bingle!

Maison Blanche Santa and Mr. Bingle

Visiting Santa at Maison Blanche in New Orleans
during the Christmas season was a tradition when I was
a child. That tradition was passed on with my niece and my
oldest son. Mr. Bingle has had a special place in our family's
Christmas throughout the years, and he is now shared
with my grandchildren.
