two objects - one at a time shooting through the sky and extinquishing in mid flight...the second exactly the same - a seconds apart

Shortly after dining on Christmas eve dinner, while gazing out towards the Pacific Ocean...from the east over our heads one (what appeared like a falling star) shot from behind, over our heads, travelling west well before the horizon disappeared...then another from behind us did exactly the same as the first....the second one maintained equal distance throughout the flight and disappeared exactly the same spot. What appeared to look like to falling stars but seems to have been propelled with great force then the usual falling stars.
