KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Three women chose Kansas City as the prime sport for a very special weekend.

Today, two of the women met their half-sister for the first time ever.

Cindy, Lorie and Missy discovered they were family after using two DNA history websites. After two confirmations, Cindy and Missy discovered their half-sister, Lorie.

"Cindy, her daughters got her a 23 and Me gift certificate for her birthday so that we can found out what our heritage was. And she got the results and it showed that Lorie was a half-sibling," said Missy Elliot.

The sisters say they plan on having a weekend here in Kansas City by spending some time together on the Country Club Plaza. None of them are from here but chose Kansas City because it is halfway between where they live.
