We are so excited to share that Evan and Carlin have welcomed their baby boy into the world.

It's time that we release our April Birthday cover.
Evan and Carlin's little boy will be here before the end of the month so that is why he is not in the cover. Trace's girlfriend's birthday is in the month of April, but we normally do not add them to the cover until they are engaged to be married.
