Lights appeared above Laredo

My family and I were hunting on a lease in South Texas, about 50 miles from Laredo. It was dark and therefor time to go home when I saw my brother and father drive past the turnoff too where we were to be picked up. (I later learned they had been watching the sky as my mother and I soon did.)We saw several light hovering and darting in quick and sudden bursts. After doing this for some while,the objects assembled in a row and began firing out smaller objects. These objects danced around in a lively manner. They would dissappear,reappear out of nowhere,spread, reassemble, once they all bunched together and then all dissappeared only to reappear in a bright noiseless burst. It was quite beautiful and I felt as if it were a show. When my brother and faather came and took us too the house all of my other relatives who had been hunting as well reported the exact same story.
