Halloween-walking inside with parents, saw several missile shaped, copper crafts flying in a line formation at a low altitude, very slow, over my house.

I was 4 or 5, and it was Halloween. I had been across the street from my house playing with a friend, and my mother came to take me home for bed. I always went to bed around 8:00. As we were walking across the street, I saw almost directly over me, and flying over my house (about 10 ft above house), a line of crafts that were copper, and shaped like missiles. They were going pretty slowly, and there were no windows or anything like that. It made no noise. I had the distinct feeling that there was somebody(s) up there watching us--the street was full of children in costumes. I asked my mother what they were, and pointed to them, but she could not see anything. I pointed again, and still she couldn't see anything, and we went in my house. I wasn't thinking at that time about "aliens"--I just knew it was something I had never seen before, was very unusual, and that nobody else seemed to notice. It wasn't until years later I would connect it with the possibility of it being extraterrestrial.
