White sphere witnessed by my nieces and orange ball witnessed by all of us on same day.

I got a text message at about 9 am in the morning from 15 year old niece that she and her sister had just saw, and I quote "freaky flying thing." She later told me that out side of their house when they went to do their daily outside choirs that she saw three white balls about the size of soft balls that had a rotating light. She then pointed it out to her sister who looked up and saw it too. They said the objects were a little higher than the power lines and the just vanished right before their eyes.

Later I came over and I had them tell me the story because they know I’m interested in UFO’s and they both had drew pictures of what they saw. One was 15 my other niece who saw it was 16 at the time.

Later that day around 4:30, I had them ride with me to go do some work at my storage space and one of them screams "what is that?”"

So I pull over and we all look out the window and see what appears to be a big orange light in the sky. It appeared to be hovering at first but then we noticed that it was moving steadily but very slowly. Then we noticed some ways away three jets were heading towards it.

I decided to drive up the road to see if I could get a better look at what we were seeing and we lost sight of it.

So I turned around and went back to same spot as before and the object was still there but there was no sign of the jets. We didn’t see what happened but they were gone.

After a while we lost sight of the orange ball as it seemed to move off into the distance.

I just want to add, I’ve seen weather balloons and I’ve seen Venus and this wasn’t either.

The girls I couldn’t believe what we had seen. We went on to the storage space and continued to talk about what we saw.
