Sighting in Virginia Beach near Pungo

I was standing at the window at the front of my house talking on the phone to my sister who lives down the street closer to the object that I saw, I saw lights red and white blinking the object was hard to see but a good size it was very low as it was behind the trees in the near distance.

I asked her to go outside to see if she could hear or see anything and she couldn't, I said it's right over near your house and you can't see or hear anything? No she couldn't, so it couldn't have been a helicopter and it hovered low to the ground for about a minute.

My sister said she noticed the air kind of foggy by her house, at that time but nothing seen or heard). It was a clear night so I don't know why it would be foggy?

Anyway my husband and son also were looking out the window and they couldn't figure out what it was either, but my husband who always tries to make sense of any situation could not for this one, he knew it was a real object with lights.

Then all of a sudden it moved off sideways and disappeared among the trees.

We went out looking for it but couln't find it, we did see a low bright light in the sky for about a half hour and it seem to get smaller, but that may have been a planet.

Which I will see if I can see it tonight because it was unusally large, bright and very low in the sky to the north.
