ᐃᓚᒌᑦ - ilagiit - family

We had our very first visitor come visit us in Iqaluit! Josh's mom, Valerie, made the trek to the north and spent a week with us. We had such a fun time exploring Iqaluit together and sharing our experiences with family from home. It was great to see her and it makes us wish everyone could come visit.

Happy to have days off to share with Mom

We found some candled ice, still frozen, despite the fact that it's July

The mosquitoes bit my lip :(

We tried fishing...it didn't go well and we lost both our hooks
