Flooding
On Friday afternoon my family and I were at home. 
It was pouring down with rain. It rained and it rained and it rained. It rained so hard that our backyard and our driveway were covered with water. There was water everywhere. My mum was devastated but my nan and papa said, “Lucky it didn’t do any damage.”
The kids in my family were amazed to see the flood waters covering everywhere. It looked like a big huge river was just at our door. We wanted to go swimming.
Me and my brothers asked my mum if we could go for a swim in the flood. She said yes so we went out in the flood and had a swim. It was very deep and we all did manus. Then it was lunchtime so we went back inside and had lunch. It was delicious and tasty. After lunch, Dallas said, “Let's go back outside for another swim in the flood.” 
First we got into our togs. Then we went outside and had a very big swim. Next my mum came out and said, “Come inside now, it is getting late.”
After that we went for a shower and then we watched a movie. Finally my mum said, “Go to bed.”
