Tat sounds fun! Tori Spelling boasts about fantastic family day out at tattoo and body piercing exhibition

Visits to the park and countryside picnics are what one usually associates with the idea of a nice family day out.

But Tori Spelling clearly has more unconventional tastes, as she boasted about how much fun she was having at a body art event with her brood in an Instagram post on Sunday.

She looked as proud as punch as she posed up with her husband Dean McDermott, their children and some friends they had made at the Body Art Expo event in the uber trendy Los Angeles County city of Pomona from Friday to Sunday.

The saucy former 90210 starlet captioned the image: 'Such a fun #FamilyPlaydate day at #TattooAndBodyArtExpo w/ @salvagedsoul and her beautiful family! #SoulMamas.'

Of course, it is a wonder at all the couple are able to enjoy days out at all considering their precarious financial position.

On her Lifetime reality show True Tori last year she revealed that the family lives 'paycheque to paycheque.'

Tori, whose television mogul father Aaron Spelling, was worth $600 million when he died in 2006, said: 'My dad wouldn't have wanted this. He'd be so mad. He worked so friggin' hard so his kids wouldn't have to f***ing struggle. I don't want to change our lifestyle. That's why I work so hard. I don't want to change.'

For it recently emerged hard-up Tori and Dean are downsizing their living accommodation again, moving to a new home half the size of their old one.

The reality star couple is renting a house in Calabasas, to the west of Los Angeles, is just 3,733 sq. ft., while the home in the suburb of Encino that they moved out of was 6,623 sq. ft.

But while it's got to hurt, the family is by no means going to be wanting for space as the new pad has five bedrooms and five bathrooms with a pool and yard.

It's the third leased home they have lived in since they sold the mansion they owned in 2011.
