I saw that one of my books Bear My Soul was used for a spell out, but it has a parade in it. Parades have not been easy to find, so you might want to move it.

I know I've read a bunch of books that work for a lot of those tasks...I listed them as well. Can you not use them for the hands AND the Easter challenge?

[Paula]

Probably we won't finish all of our cards, but we still need:

We're using the books in hands and easter at the same time. I'll see what can be moved, but I always try to finish an egg, because that means 5 extra points.
Anyway, I'm always moving books around so we can gain the more point possible ;)

[Katie]

Oh I see. :) Sounds good.
