4 of us saw the object while living near Prescott Arizona

Hi, I am not very good at expressing things in writing, please bare with me (.am not sure of the exact date, know it was October 1975) I was a teenager ,staying with some friends near Prescott ,AZ with a family of 4, the husband worked in Phoenix, would come home on the weekends, but the Mom, her 2 kids and I were awoke one night (had to be on a weeknight , husband was in Phoenix.) to our dogs barking, very loud and as if they were affraid, expecting to see a bear or mountian lion, loose dog or horse, but what we saw scared the daylights out of us, ( were all 4 sleeping in the same room, as they were building their house) at the time, we looked out the window, because was unsure pof what it was but over in the distance (may have been 3/4 of a mile ? not sure) on a hill, was a circular shaped object, with lights going in motion around the bottom, it looked as though it had landed on the side of the hill, Well none of us was about to go all the way over their to get a better look (TOO AFFRAID), but it was their appx 30 min, just staying in one place not moving up or down or side to side, then all of a sudden it just went straight up very fast and disappeared??? but the next day ( DAY LIGHT) we did ride the horses over their and on the side of the hill it was pretty rocky in some spots but some areas were soft enough to leave a partail impression, of a round print in the ground??? While living in the Prescott Area,(Spring of 1995) my mom and I used to see Cigar shaped, Disks,- (small and Large) in the skys even in broad daylight, my dad used to tell us we were seeing things, until............. He started seeing them too, he said one morning just before the break of day a saucer shaped craft, was just over the mountain, maybe a Mile? and it had turned up so as to look at it from the top , and he said it sat their for a few min, then just went up and out of sight, then the sun came all the way up, but he said he had enough light to see, it was not a plane ,or helicopter balloon, like the Government always try to say they are, he also saw Cigars shaped too. I in my life time have probably seen 15-20 different UFO's, We never got any pictures, though, we were seeing them so often, we would run back in the house to grab the camera and by the time we would get back out side it would be gone, or to far away to get a picture then we thought we got smart- started carrying a camera, but it always seemed as though buy the time we got it out of the bag and ready aimed to shoot the object would be gone, some times they would only stay in one place for a few seconds very disapointing, because I know it was none of the above mentioned man made craft.. Thank You
