We also note J & M requested $8,625.00 in post-trial attorney fees and $70.00 for the filing fee for the appeal as an addendum to the second point in its brief. In support of this request, J & M submitted an invoice detailing its requested attorney fees in the appendix to its brief. However, this document does not appear in the record on appeal. Rule 84.04(h), which requires an appendix and directs what should or may be included in the appendix, does not authorize inclusion of evidence outside the record on appeal. Evans v. FirstFleet Inc., 345 S.W.3d 297, 306 (Mo.App. S.D.2011). The mere inclu*571sion of documents in an appendix to a brief does not make them part of the record on appeal. Id. We cannot and will not consider documents outside the record. Therefore, we hereby deny J & M’s request for attorney fees on appeal.
