Cory and I just finished the Financial Peace Planning Course! It was long but completely worth it. It has helped us to better budget and has brought us closer as a couple. We are recommending this to all of our friends and family whether you feel you need financial help or not. He not only taught us how to budget but helps people to get out debt and how to invest your money once you have it. It covers retirement, savings accounts, etc. Its not just about budgeting. It's great, try it.

These are a few pictures from the baby shower in Logan. I hate the one with my belly but too many people said they wanted it so here you are! Things are still going well with the pregnancy. He should be here soon.

This is Cory and I at a performance down in bountiful. Now that I am getting my belly I won't fit into the costumes anymore. But we are still hoping that I can dance for awhile longer

Our bathroom floor has been very spongy lately. Infact, we think the only thing that has been keeping us from falling through the floor is the linoleum! It got fixed yesterday and this is the process of fixing it.

This is our Christmas tree this year. It is my first real tree that I can remember. It made the house smell good. Christmas was great. We were able to go to Oregon and spend the time before
Christmas with my parents and we were able to go down to Cory's parents for Christmas day.

You can see his face here.
















Yep, definitely a boy.

Well, It's been a busy week for us. School started, and we agreed to coach the ballroom dance team this year. It should be interesting. We are really hoping to have a good year there. Jenn and I started learning the routines today, so we can start teaching them once we have a team.

We've spent the summer making jewelry, and having a lot of fun. I'm posting a picture of some of the rings I've made. Jenn will probably post some of her necklaces and anklets later. I am starting to try selling them on ebay. I posted a the first few today, as a trial run. Look under Seller: Ragnork to see them. The gold one I made for a lady in the red hat society. It turned out really nice. I just need to get a display for them now.

Homecoming, 2006. Loads of fun.

This past week has come with a little excitement. I was asked by one of my coworkers to teach her and her fiance to dance. So now every Friday we are teaching them and it has been a lot of fun. Since then, we have been approach my a lot of people who want to learn to dance. (One of the people that want to learn is the owner of the Sweetly Divine pastry shop here in Logan. And if you haven't tried their food you are missing out!!!) We are trying to take things slow because we are not sure what we can handle, but if we can do this on a larger scale it would be awesome. Tonight we are going to talk to a local club owner about using their facility during off hours to teach people so that we can do more lessons.

Well, I figure I should post that I got a new job about two weeks ago. I'm working at USU's Space Dynamics lab. I'm doing primarily logistics and documentation on a camera project. So far, it's alot of fun.

Well, I've been meaning to post this for a while, and I'm finally getting around to it. Since our Gyoza recipe has been so popular, here it is. This recipe was provided to us by our great friends Keri Jo and Darrel Grossen!

1/2 lb. sausage
1/2 lb. hamburger
3 cups finely chopped cabbage
1 ginger bud grated (about 1 cubic inch)
1 onion finely chopped
salt, pepper
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp Aji mirin
2 eggs
2-3 tbsp soy sauce
round eggroll skins

mix everything together,
place about a spoonful in each wrap, pinch together.
you can fry, deepfry, steam or boil them. we recommend frying them in a little oil till they start to brown, then adding a little water, and putting a lid on, till they are done.

For all you Nathan fans out there, here's a picture of him in his zoot suit.

These are just a few of the pictures from our murder mystery dinner that we did on Halloween. It was so much fun. Luke and Courtney Johnson won the best costume (they are the old people). Cory went as Gomez Addams and I went as a princess. Cory's mustache drove me nuts!!!

This post is for my mother. These are my wedding shoes that she bought me and they didn't fit right so I didn't wear them very much. I was able to punch some holes into them and they were comfortable all night! Thanks MOM!!! Love ya.

This is Cory and me after the USU homecoming dance this year. I borrowed the dress from a coworker and I styled my own hair (I really didn't want to because I have never done a formal hairstyle on anyone!).














This is Cory on our really cool scooter!! We still ride it around even though it's getting really cold. It gets great gas mileage and it's a lot of fun.

Welcome! To Cory and Jenn Johns blogger site. This picture is from our wedding which was August 12, 2005. Cory and I have now been married for just over a year. Cory graduated this past summer with his bachelor's degree Electrical Engineering. I will graduate with my associate degree in Nursing this May.
Cory and I currently live in small apartment right by campus. The apartment looks like something from the 50's! It has orange trim and the tacky brown trying to look like would doors. The only bad thing is that is doesn't hold the temperature very well. It has these really cool windows all along the top of the walls, which let the sun in in the summer and the cold air in in the winter. We are currently trying to fix this.
