Mommy, Can't We Just Skip February?

My younger daughter, Maddie, loves summer and the beach. For the past four or five years, we've gone to California (Laguna Beach, Disneyland, Santa Monica) to get away from the snow and cold of the Roxiticus Valley for ten days of sun, surf and sand, around Presidents' Day in February. This year, however, Rex's son Postboy is getting married to Mathgirl in Connecticut that weekend, so we're sticking around New Jersey. Maddie is very excited about London's birthday and her big party at NJPAC, but she's not so excited about the icy cold month of February that she has to get through before her own birthday in March. Does anyone have any suggestions for Maddie?
