In our Epic Halloween DIY Costume thread, Boing Boing reader Miss Emelia shares this awesome photo and says,

We're working Haunted Fox Hollow again, so our darling new baby girl is joining us in the pirate cove during the "light scares" hour. So far, she's done great. She's more giggles than Y'arrr, but we cheerfully tell the guests that she'll learn to swab the deck or she'll end up in the pirate's stew. When the little kids see that she isn't the least bit scared, it helps them get their courage back.

      Nope, but we do let our friend Rachel take photos of our baby whenever she wants. Check out her portfolio at http://phoenixfeather.net/. My other favorite from that day is just our wee pirate baby.
