Orange balls in sky

1-8-11 7 pm my wife and I along with our kids were leaving my mother-in laws and father in-laws house and driving along 45 highway just out of Parkville close to the nationals golf course and noticed 2 orange glowing circular fireballs in the sky. One orange ball was hovering still and the other orange ball was circling around it.

I saw it first and told my wife to look so we decided to pull off the highway and she then proceeded to get out and take a picture and within that time frame of 2 minutes the orange balls just disappeared with the blink of an eye. I hope someone saw the two objects we saw.

The director asked me if I thought these were Chinese lanterns and I can tell you these were not Chinese lanterns. They were too fast to be Chinese lanterns.

Also I failed to mention size of these orange balls.

Approximately they were much bigger than Jupiter almost double the size of Jupiter.

I hope someone out there seen these objects!!
