Help Ryan & Dalis Donate!

By purchasing Scentsy from Ryan & Dalis you will help give back! The first $500 they receive in profit from sales, they will donate to the Ronald McDonald House! The reason they started selling Scentsy in the first place was to give back and donate to charities. So go to https://dalisandryan.scentsy.us/Home and help support a great cause! I said this in a previous post with Maci about the NOH8 Campaign and i'll say it again here, it's great to see them using their fame for something good!

Also, check out this adorable picture Dalis tweeted before of Ryan & Bentley!

Maci Bookout & Kyle King Arrive Back In Chattanooga!

After being in the warm weather of South California for a week, Maci Bookout and Kyle King had to leave paradise. They flew from Los Angeles to Chicago, where it was snowing and they then arrived in Tennessee to cold weather and snow. But both Maci and Kyle were looking to get back to Tennessee. They missed Bentley and their puppy Henie too much, and are just more of down South kinda people, as opposed to the glamorous, fast pased California life style. Unfortunately since coming home, Maci it seems has gotten sick.

Dalis Connell's Fitness Pictures!


Dalis Connell recently did a fitness modeling shoot with the photographer Dicci. Check out some of the pictures! I think everyone can agree that Dalis has an amazing body. She can definitely make it as a fitness model!

Ryan Edwards, Dalis Connell & Bentley Get Their Baking On!

After tweeting that he was just spending a lazy rainy day with Bentley and Dalis, Ryan's mom tweeted asking them to bake her some cupcakes. When Ryan told Bentley that, he freaked out and got really excited, so they baked cupcakes! Bentley seems to really love baking! I think he's going to eventually give Buddy from Cake Boss some competition!

Maci Bookout Meets Up with Castmembers In California!

Maci Bookout is meeting up with fellow castmembers Catelynn Lowell and Kailyn Lowry! Catelynn, who does "Teen Mom" with Maci, and Kail who is a part of "Teen Mom 2" were boarding their flights today! On Wednesday, they will be filming for the Dr. Drew show, which Maci has previously appeared on with Catelynn and Farrah Abraham. They will also be speaking to a local California high school about teen pregnancy prevention. Jenelle Evans was supposed to be joining them on this trip, but had to cancel because she has come down with a case of mono and strep. Farrah, Leah Messer, and Chelsea Houska were not asked to appear. Kyle King is not too happy that Tyler Baltierra will not be coming on the trip, making him the only male present. But Tyler had a very good reasoning for declining the trip, as he did not want to miss any of his college classes!

Dalis Connell's Workout Blog!

Dalis Connell has officially opened a workout blog at the request of tons of fans. Because she isn't able to work with everyone face to face, she created this blog as an easy and effective alternative. (But if you do live in the Chattanooga area, you can hire her as your personal trainer!) The blog will be updated dailey with workout videos, tips and diet ideas. You have the opportunity to tell her what changes you want in your body, the type of body you have, what workouts difficult for you and what is hard to cut out of your diet. She will help each person individually as well as post stuff for all viewers to use. You are basically getting a personal trainer from home for free!

This is her blog: http://www.dalisconnell.blogspot.com/

Dalis Connell's Workout Plan

It seems almost every single day, tons of fans are asking Dalis Connell how she keeps in such good shape and what advice she can give to them to do the same. Whether it be new mothers looking to shed baby weight, or just fans looking to get healthier-they're all asking. She tweeted this workout plan over the Summer when she got tons of requests for it but the amount of requests has definitely risen since. Fans are asking her to create a website or YouTube channel for her to make workout videos, post diet tips, etc. She has definitely started considering it based on the amount of people asking her to help train online since they can't train with her in Chattanooga. Dalis is a licensed personal trainer, so she is able to do this. This a screenshot of what she posted this Summer. Of course, she runs track for college so she does a ton more running, weight lifting, etc but this is what she does when she is not in season.

How did Maci Bookout, Kyle King, Ryan Edwards, Dalis Connell & Bentley spend New Years Eve? Maci, Kyle and tons of friends rented out a giant cabin in Gatlingburg, Tennessee for the weekend! They partied all hours of the weekend, except for when they were sleeping of course. Ryan, Dalis and friends went out to Atlanta, Georgia! They stayed at a hotel with a club on the roof overlooking the city and then went to The Cheesecake Factory and an Atlanta Falcons game on New Years day! I'm not sure if they watched the giant peach drop or not. Bentley hung out with his Mimi and Papa, Ryan's parents for New Years Eve!
