I'm not completely sure whether it is all correct, but I hope I was helpful. I corrected some mistakes. If you want chat conversations, I would be glad to know you better :)

Nate's corrections are good but I'd just add a few things:
1/ It would be "during Easter" (or "for Easter"), not "on Easter". "On" would be used for a single day but Easter stretches over 4 days.
2/ "Tuersdays" should be "Tuesdays"
3/ In International English Julie would always "come second" ("She always comes second").
4/ For dates you always say (for example) "It's THE 4th"
