It's Great to be 8! Happy Birthday Evan!


Evan is such a great young man! He is so loving and is a very good boy. He is a great student. He is in the highest math, reading and spelling class at school. Evan is such a great leader. Everyone wants to be Evan's friend. I always know when school is out because the phone starts ringing and it's always someone wanting to play with Evan. He is very polite and always uses good manners. He loves to hug and kiss his little sisters. I love that he stills loves to hug and snuggle me. I hope that never changes. We love you so much Evan! We hope you remember this birthday forever!

Evan got to have a very special birthday by being baptized on his birthday. It was at the Easter building in Littleton. We had many friends and family that were able to come. We missed Grandma and Grandpa Stevens, but we hope these pictures will help some!

Evan got baptized with his cousin Clark and Clark's cousin Quintin. It was a great day!

Uncle Thad, Aunt Becky, Uncle Nate and cousin Ethan. Thanks for helping out at the baptism!


Evan with his Great Grandma and Grandpa Brink. Grandma led the music for the baptism.

Evan with his Aunt Kami, Uncle Jody, Aunt Kelly and Uncle Shane. It was great to have them at the Baptism too!


Evan with his second family (The Kilands)after his Baptism. Jake is our neighbor and Evan's very best friend in the whole world. It was very special to have them come to his Baptism.


Evan loves to draw. This is the usual place he can be found if he isn't shooting hoops in our basement. He will sit at the dining room table for hours and draw athletes pictures from books he gets at the library. He is very good with most stats of his favorite players and a very good artist!


Evan LOVES basketball and football. I'm not sure how he became such a super fan of the Minnesota Vikings, but he loves A.P. He loves to watch Nuggets games with his dad and uncle Nate. He loves to watch any football games too. Evan is a great basketball player. I will post some video later of his skills!



Thanks for being such a joy to our family Evan! Happy Birthday!
