three eyewitness's and picture in news paper of ufo

I was with my mom returning from a late night movie at the local drive-in theater,  we pulled into a turning lane to the mobil home park and I saw this craft with a distinct shape of a saucer.
We were about 100 feet from it and I could see fire coming from ports all along the edge of the craft, as if they were firing in sequence moving from left to right.  There was no noise coming from it and I saw the tall grass directly under it was moving,but not off beyond the craft.  
This craft appeared to be hovering 8 to 12 feet above the ground next to a fence line beside along a row of mobil homes.  It was so close to the fence and trailer as if to easedrop on the goings on of the trailer.  
I believe it was a full moon because I could see the shape,the grass, the outline against the background,and this was next to the highway, so we couldn't of been the only ones to see it.
The next day an article came out in the news paper about a farmer taking a picture of a UFO going over his barn.  It was the same craft I saw the evening before.  So it was my mom, me, the farmer that saw this.  
I would do almost anything to go back to New Mexico and do the research at the state library to get that picture.
We have encouraged the source of the report to contact the newspaper for a copy of the article.  Date above is approximate.  PD
