Strange Punishment

Sam and Nolan were naughty yesterday at my mom's house.  For some bizarre reason, they started throwing clumps of dirt.  Everywhere.  All over the driveway, at the house, at my dad's car...let's just say my mom was a tiny bit tense when she came outside and discovered the mess.

So they are being punished, both at her house and at ours.  The punishment?  No sprinklers.  Yes, they are not allowed to touch the sprinklers for the rest of the week.  We are still watering our lawn, but the boys are not allowed to change the zones or touch any sprinklers.

Most kids would think this was the dumbest punishment ever.  My boys, especially Sam, are in agony.  Nolan is also upset because in addition to the sprinkler ban, he's not allowed to play in the water table.  Could life BE any worse?
