Two red/orange spheres over Orem Utah

I just got off work and I was heading west when I noticed a bright red/orange flickering in the sky WSW of me. It appeared to be a lighted lantern. I pulled over to watch it. It was moving to the North East, about the speed a helicopter would travel. As it got closer to my location, but still at a distance, I noticed a second object, just the same as the first, but a little brighter, traveling the same route, just a little more south than the first. The first object slowed then appeared to stop and hover as the second approached, maybe 1-2 blocks away. The light of both had dimmed a little, but the light of the second remained brighter than the first. They were both moving very slowly at this time. Their movement was almost undetectable if you didn’t have a fixed object to compare it to. I opened the car door to listen for sounds but heard nothing, so I then turned off the car and stepped out and still heard nothing. It was quite cold (7 degrees) so! I thought I might be able to hear something. They proceeded to move north at this time, very slowly. At this point I decided to leave, quite shook. I opened my sunroof when I was less than a block away and could see one of them directly above me. I continued on my way home.
