2 big dots surrounded by 10 or 20 small flashing dots in no pattern.

me and my sister, and my mom were looking at the stars tonight at about 9:00. My mom got cold but me and my sister stayed outside. We were standing there when something caught my eye. I was looking North East, and saw two large white dots, a little bigger than normal stars. They were fairly close like a dots at the end of an airplanes wings, but they were much to big. One was higher than the other, and it sortof looked like they were joined by an invisible line at a 45 degree angle. There were about 10 or 20 smaller white dots flasing around it like a strobe like in no patter. It looked like glitter in the sky. It was traveling North East, then disseapeared. The event lasted about 2 minutes.
