Maricopa, Az Bright red light hovering and moving slowly over SW AZ for about 25min.

On July 3, 2008 at 2115 hrs myself and another person were witching fire works from a show about 5 miles S/SW of our location, when we spotted a what at first we thought to be a slow and low flying airplane or helicopter off of our 12 o’clock. I had mentioned several times how slow the airplane was moving and if it was ever going to get towards our location. We then moved to our S/SW to see the fire works from another position when we both noticed the craft slowly moving to the S/SW and gaining altitude it was a very bright red and it appeared to change colors to a white and back to red, it hovered for about another 15min or so and then was gone.
