Today is Super Bowl Sunday with the New England Patriots squaring off against the New York Giants.  This is another great opportunity for sisters to get together.  I am not much of a football fan but the hoopla around the Super Bowl is the perfect time to host a get together with your sisters, their families and friends.  This of course assumes that you live near each other.  It not, you could host a party with your sister like friends. Even thought I am not much of a football fan, I do like seeing all of the new commercials.  Participating in Monday morning conversations at work is easier if you at least watched the commercials and could provide your thoughts on them.

If you really don't want to do a Super Bowl Party, you could use this time to give the guys time on their own to watch the game and cheer on their teams.  The girls on the other hand, could use this time for some sister bonding over dinner, go to a movie, play cards or board games, or just hang out at Starbucks.  With the guys focused on the game and hopefully watching the kids, you have some time for a good chick flick.  Today is a good day to see a movie like 27 Dresses.

Since I am feeling a little under the weather today, I am not doing much but taking it easy.  My sisters live over a 1000 miles away and have their own Super Bowl plans.  So updating the website today keeps me close to them in thought.

Don't look at Super Bowl Sunday as another Sunday game day, but rather a day for sisters to get together to catch up, laugh and enjoy the day!

I am so excited to get Weekend Sisters and up and running as a web site.  I thought I would try the "build your own web site" option prior to hiring a professional.  I watched the tutorial and it didn't seem to be all that difficult.  Wrong!  The process was not intuitive to me.

I first had to select the page design which took much longer than expected.  I finally settled on the beach theme which aligns with our weekend get away trips for sisters.

Next I had to set up the pages and the navigation bar.  This actually was pretty easy.  However, then I had to add the content to each page and this was more difficult.  It would have been helpful if I had written my thoughts previously in a word document and then pasted them into the website template. Since I did not do that, most of the website is "under construction"!

However, I am celebrating the birth of our web site which took over one year from idea to press.  I haven't yet told Diane and Donna that it is up and published.  I plan to do so tomorrow.  I can't wait to hear their reaction.

I hope that you follow our journey to developing this website into a community for sisters and hopefully join us at one of our future events or sisters weekend trips.
