The weekend at the river!

Without thinking Brooke, Johnny and I crawled into the car and rushed down to the river. Johnny and i ran to the rope swing.
"3,2,1 cannon ball" I was already floating down stream. After i rolled out Johnny jumped in. Mum dived in and sat in the water. Finally Brooke swung off and all of us thought she had but really she just swung back. "OK" "Let's go down the hole and have a real swim," mum exclaimed.
Suddenly already we were swimming. Meanwhile mum set up her chairs and Brooke,Johnny and i were jumping off the rock. The rock was really big and shiny and SLIPPERY! When you jumped  you had to be careful of the rocks in the water and how slippery it was. As i floated down stream a branch caught my eye. When ever i came i always swang off it and pretended to be Tarzan.
After we glided back to the rock the noise of "wee woo hoo" filled my ears. When it was my turn i stood on the rock and thought, "Do i really want to back flip?"
Without thinking i just back flipped. While Johnny floated down the rapids i plunged to the bottom of the deep swaying river.
 As the river got colder, Mum bellowed, "5 more minutes." We all thought only like 5 more jumps. When we did more jumps we knew we had to go soon.
Finally we did our last jump, Then we staggered up the hill back to the car.
