Thinking Spring!

Well, sort of. I'm not in any hurry to rush past the first part of the year. I mean, I've got Andy's birthday and Valentine's Day coming up, and I really would like to learn how to cross country ski. But, I am looking forward to "city trip" this spring with one of my best friends.
Last year, we went on a spontaneous road trip to Chicago, just a couple months before each of us got married. We had a great time and decided that it'd be a great tradition to start. And now that Christmas is over, we want to start thinking and planning. So now, the big question is: Where should we go? We'd like to go somewhere kind of warm, but haven't totally ruled out cooler locations. And we're also thinking late March/early-mid April. Any suggestions for fun weekend spots to visit that won't break the bank? So far, we're considering St. Louis, possibly Orlando (although, flights look more expensive for that!)... what do you think?
The only glitch in our whole plan is the fact that her sister (who is also Andy's sister-in-law!) is pregnant, and due April 7. So, do we have to plan our trip around that? Andy and I live far enough away where we won't be traveling to see the new baby right away, but my friend is only half as far - and her sister would probably be crushed if she wasn't there! I guess we'll work out the details later, but I'm excited to start thinking about it.
