Characteristics: Lights on object

When my sister and I were little kids, we saw a disk-shaped ufo hovering over our apartment building.

My sister was five years old and I was seven. We lived in an apartment complex with my mom, two other sisters and step-dad. My sister and I were outside jumping rope. We heard a loud noise as if an airplane was landing near-by. It got really windy.

We saw a circular, disk-shaped aircraft hovering just over our apartment building. It was grey in color and it had lights around the side of it, circulating around it. It was very loud, and it wasn't very big because it wasn't any bigger than the building.

We stood looking at it for a bit, arguing about what we should do. We both wound up running inside to tell our mom, who didn't believe us and wasn't willing to come outside. However, she did say that she heard a loud sound like an airplane, but she believes that is all it was.

When we ran back outside, the flying object was gone. We never saw anything/anyone come outside of it. Both my sister and I remember the event so vividly and in the exact same detail, although it happened when we were little. I don't know who to talk about it because nobody believes us but our grandpa, who told me he saw a ufo once.
