Black object disappears followed by light object

I'm same person who made 12/22/98 report. Again, was in hot tub at approx. the same time as 12/22 incident. In addition to my girlfriend,this time my 3 sons also witnessed it. First I saw a black + for about 3 seconds traveling west to east. I said "look at that!" But it disappeared before anybody else saw it. Then a minute or two later I saw a single "light" in the same general area as our previous sighting-near DIA area. This time the object primarily hovered with occasional quick horizontal moves. Grabbed my video cam but battery was dead, so took pictures with a 35mm (couldn't) see object thru viewfinder and haven't developed film yet) focusing on general area I could see the object in with naked eye. At first I though it might be a balloon as it wasn't moving much, but its quick movements dispelled that notion. After 10 minutes or so it just vanished. Before this all happened my girlfriend commented "there go the military planes again". There were also 5 or 6 planes taking off from DIA right before this who's colors I was unfamiliar with, white body with blue tail's ???
