Bright Lights Low in Eastern Denver Skyline

At first we saw 2 bright lights low in the sky diagnal to eachother, then the lights moved and went to the opposite diagnal of eachother. Few minutes later a light just below the 2nd light popped up, and literally popped into the night sky. Then a 4th light appeared and 5th. They looked to be staggered in the sky way too low to be stars. There's no airport strip or lit towers East of Denver in Weld County, so it couldnt have been a plane. Satallites don't move like these lights did, they moved around eachother shining bright and fading and then reappearing brighter then ever. They had to have been there for atleast 20-30 mins, and I watched about of 25 mins of it. Its was breath taking, I had to call my mom. I'm just looking for a logical explination, I've seen these lights in the Eastern sky a few times before, always in the east though, and I've NEVER seen 5 of them together this completly blows my mind.

Any answers will help. Thank you
