The other day I was playing with the chain on our lamp and it reminded me of teather ball. I loved this game as a kid and I started talking to John about it. So now every time I sit by the lamp I play a mini game by myself.

Well, the boys caught on to what I was doing and asked if they could play. I was so excited that my boys would be interested in my childhood game of teather ball so I said "yes." We have had some major competitions and, I realized we had to have some kind of reward for winning. So, I came up with a trophy, it's the ball off the lamp shade (pictured above with Rylon).

The boys forgot the name of it so now they call it tinter ball. It was a perfect name for the lamp version of teather ball so I went with it. We have a blast with this game and I think everyone should try it. Tinter ball!

Call me if you would like to know how to play!
