If an Asteroid wiped out the Dinosaurs how did Evolution continue?

If an Asteroid wiped out the Dinosaurs how did Evolution continue?

I think I'm missing something out as I'm pretty new to reading about Evolution in detail. I've watched a few programs and books and this is how its usually depicted:

Evolution started from Bacteria.
Bacteria -> Fish -> Amphibians etc...
Asteroid happens killing the Dinosaurs.
Amphibians continue to Evolve.

So my question is, if the Asteroid wiped out the Dinosaurs, wouldn't it of wiped out the Amphibians and everything else too?

I realise there are other theories such as Volcanos & Ice Aces but wouldn't this have the same effect too?

I know the majority of Scientists believe it was an Asteroid, but I just struggle to figure out how Evolution continued to happen if everything was wiped out?

I'm probably missing something stupid but any enlightenment would be great.

Thanks!
