California - 07-02-10

I'm not sure how long it lasted because we thought we were going to die, but you will understand in this description. It felt like minutes but I know it was seconds, Here is the story:

I am reporting this in sadness because of this event my dog died! My daughter went to get the dogs from outside to bring them in (she's 15) and she ran screaming "Get out, a plane is going to hit us, run," and she was hysterical.

My husband, son, and I went running downstairs and my husband went to the back door to investigate because my daughter is very meek and quiet and never screams.

The next thing I know my husband is yelling "Run, it's going to hit us," and he started praying to God that we lived, and if not take us to Heaven and let it be quick.

We ran straight out the door as fast as our legs would go. My son and I never heard or saw anything, we were just running for dear life.

My husband told us to stop behind the trees because he thought at any moment it would hit, and we wouldn't get much farther ( didn't actually even think we would make it out the front door), and we live in the country so it's all mostly open space in front of us.

When nothing happened after a few seconds, he told us to keep running, but he turned back toward the house. We kept hurrying down the road, and as we went we were trying to call our dogs that had escaped with us.

My husband returned in his truck to state the object simply was gone, vanished, he had no idea where it went but it never hit our house or flew over us and not a single sound was heard.

So we continued the search for our dogs, however one was struck by a car and killed. Later when I spoke with my husband and daughter, I was informed that the object that scared us had 2 bright lights and was up in the sky.

They could see the back neighbor's house below it, and it made no sound, it teetered a little back and forth, but the lights were always horizontal to each other.

My husband said he saw the silhouette and it was as big as our back pasture across and very dark. I am very saddened, but wanted to report this because weird things have occurred before here that we never mentioned to people.

Something very wrong happened here tonight... please help!! Has anyone else ever experienced this?
