It was the afternoon of December 16th, 2001 when my family and I were cleaning up the day after our daughter's first birthday. Approximately 1 p.m. we had music playing and our family members helped as we picked up trash and folded the party tables when we (my wife & I) looked up at the north sky at an object which caught our attention.

 

It appeared like a set of many (maybe 15+) balloons were high up and they remained in a straight lined pattern, but a slight bent at one end. So we continued to stare for minutes and then our family members looked up to see what it was that we were staring at and suddenly we noticed that this pattern looked more like a cigar shaped object.

 

We must have observed this object for more than 25 minutes in total because this object began to shape itself like a worm moving across the sky NE of us and as it moved further out, it split into 3 circular shapes and back together and again it split. This occurred at least 3 to 4 times and one of the circular shapes connected with one of the remaining 2 circles and it began to flash slowly at a bottom portion on and off, on and off many times.

 

As the object moved away in the east area of the sky it disappeared. Months after this event we found a web-site (unexplained-mysteries.com) and the same object was seen elsewhere in the world but at night. So I ask you, "Do you believe that UFO's exist?"
