are there any other leg exercises that I can do besides squats and lunges?

Yes, tons. Some of my personal favorites are dead lifts, leg extensions, calf raises, hamstring curls, sumo squats, and hack squats. I will post three links for you here from bodybuilding.com that will show you over 60 exercises you could try for your legs. Each exercise shown is accompanied by a video demonstration so you won't be left guessing how to do them. I hope this will give you a wider range of options when working on your legs. Good luck!

Pilates! Pilates, pilates, pilates! It was first created for dancers to tone, strengthen, and create flexibility in their legs. It also helps out with your arms and abs. It can be a lot of fun too!
try getting a copy of Pilates for Dummies. They have a begginer and intermediate version on the same disc.

hamstring curls, leg extensions, running? jumping exercises- jump rope, vertical jumps, ankle weights, stairs, step ups(stepping up on a surface about hip level and driving the other knee as high as your can while nearly leaping up with the other leg on your toes, hold weights while doing this)
