8-10 orange glowing silent objects floating across the sky seen in Lakeland, Fl

We were coming home after a Thanksgiving dinner and as we were pulling into our driveway I saw yellow orange glowing objects floating thru the sky. I live on the north side of Lakeland, Fl near I-4 and those object were floating in the sky from direction of Orlando towards Tampa, following the path of the interstate I-4. They were following one another in a line, some went across the whole sky, some disappeared/faded away. They were maybe twice the size of the stars in the sky, but had an orange warm glow, unlike the bright silver yellow star lighte. There was no noise, they moved quite fast across the sky, but apperead to be floating or gliding at the same time. We saw 8-10 of them. My 4 year old son called them "orange moving stars", pretty good description actually.

P.S. There is MacDill AFB in Tampa, and those were floating exactly in that direction(checked it later with my smart phone compass). However, those did not look like and airplane or helicopter or a blimp.
