Carter was chosen to sing in the Nebraska Music Education Association All-State Choir. Carter and two other boys from choir were chosen to go as well and represent Wysong Elementary and Lincoln. Kids from all over the state come together for a full day of music. The kids all head down to the Lied center in Lincoln bright and early in the morning. They spend all day practicing the songs together as a big group. He had put in hours of practice outside of school with his teacher to prepare for this day. They learned quite a few songs and some in different languages. They ate lunch on site and got ready for the performance at 4:00. The choir did a great job and the director was so good with the kids. He made it so much fun for them. It was the first time we have really seen Carter animated and having a good time while singing. Carter said the day was really fun and all the boys had a great time.
