15-16 bright objects seen in Seattle, WA on 7/7/12

Hello David, My husband and I saw a group of "lights", bigger than the stars, from the deck of our house in Magnolia, Seattle. The “lights” had circular shape in a yellow/gold color, coming from the Lake Union area, down, from the horizon, going up, and travelling from East to South. I took some binoculars and it seemed that the yellow/gold circle had a red center. We are not sure what this was, because it was unlike anything else we have seen before. If they were fireworks, they should have gone up, faster, but these were travelling in the sky, in pairs, it seems, and there were about 16. It took them about 5-10 minutes to go from one place to the other, and then they vanished. We cannot remember exactly the time; I would assume it was around 22:00 I saw a plane nearby, but the shape of these objects was definitely different.
