Multiple colored lights west of Loveland.

First my son and boyfriend noticed a green light in the sky above us and slightly west and a light yellow larger orb shaped light directly above. They yelled into the camper and I came out and saw them also. We pointed them out to a neighbor who then watched them with us. My boyfriend went to his mother's camper and had her come out and look also. The lights moved and changed directions a few times. We watched for about 5 mins then 2 helicopters flew towards the lights at which time the orb stopped moving then proceeded north west and the green light headed west. When the lights were too dim to see clearly, I was headed back into the house when my son yelled at me to look because there were more lights. When I looked to the West I saw two hot pink very bright lights with a green light in the center lined up perfectly spaced vertically coming over the mountain straight towards us. We then yelled at the neighbor and my boyfriend to look and I knocked on my ! other neighbor's door and had him and his girlfriend come out and look at the lights as they were so shocking amd unusual. The two pink and green light moved in a strange manner, shifting position and changing direction quickly moving towards us but always keeping in a triangular pattern with the green in the center. Just to the east of the pink and green lights was a smaller red light we noticed at one point that was harder to see and it did not follow the pink and green lights as they traveled so we lost track of it. We saw what we identified as a plane come across the sky from the West towards the formation at which time the green and pinklights paused then moved off to the northwest, shifting an appearing to get farther apart but still equally distanced and triangular in nature. At least one other neighbor at the campground came outside and witnessed these lights while we were out there. He was on the phone at the time and told the person on the phone about the light! s. We saw the lights move off into the distance until they wer! e so fai nt we could not see them any longer. Then above us and to the west we noticed a bright blue light which came towards us and appeared to come lower then moved north west and higher until out was also out of sight. We stayed outside for about 10 mins after that and saw no further strange lights but an incredible amount of air traffic flying much lower than usual which we also found strange. All of the strange lights we witnessed stayed solid and did not flash or change color. One neighbor tried to record and photograph but the lights did not show up on his phone camera. My son tried to photograph the lights but they did not show up for him either. I did not try to photograph it myself because I did not want to break away from viewing to go in the house and get my phone.
