Solid orange glow that got bigger and blurry when falling then rose, got smaller and headed North East.

Merry Christmas. My neighbors and I saw what looked like a plane on fire comming down from the sky. However, it was as if it was in slow motion. The ball was getting bigger as it lost altitude and started to get blurry as it grew in size. Then it shrunk again and gained altitude and headed North East. This was a solid orange glow. I've never seen any airplanes do this. Most planes have white lights. This was a solid orange light.

After reading the post from 12/21/2012 in Pompano Beach I guess I'm not crazy.
