I see three spots that need accents in the first part....I made the letters bigger for the ones that need accents.
Nuestro dIa llegara pronto, (the I in dia) Y no podemos esperar! Pegue este imAn en su nevera, (the A in iman) Para quE no te vas a olividar! (the E in que)

some other changes...
i think it sounds better saying cada noche
You are using the polite forms in some spots and the tu (accent on the u) friendly form...i think it should be formal so here would be some changes...
mencione-formal, polite command
llame (formal, polite command)
and for the top part where it says te olvidaras (with accent) you would say se olvidará (polite) b/c you say pegue which is the polite command so the same form should follow through.
and you can also take out the a before the phone number
I think your all set...I'll look again in a bit.

Re: Need help with Spanish punctuation and accents.
The above re-write was very good. I agree with everything here, except the bit about removing the 'a' after 'llame'; I'd change it to 'al' instead of removing it:

So, with the changes, it looks like this (there are hardly any necessary accent marks so it's easy):
