It was not long before Bilbo, Sam and Frodo ran into another of Bilbo's friends.
"Bombur!" cried Bilbo.
"Bilbo? Is that really you?" called Bombur.
In front of them was a possibly the biggest dwarf Sam and Frodo had ever seen, but not in the way you think; huge in horizontal means, rather than vertical. Bombur has medium orange hair, with a huge beard and moustache, which are braided together to form a kind of loop thing that goes all the way down to his belly button (which is saying a lot). His stomach makes him look like he ate a Christmas dinner for 10 all by himself, in one gulp. It is a known fact to all of those that know Bombur that he likes his cheese, and also eats it by the wheel.
"Bombur, my huge friend!" cried Bilbo. Bombur looked kind of offended and confused for a moment, but forgot about it in a second and leaned into crush Bilbo in a hug.
"How have you been?" Bilbo gasped, when he was released from Bombur's bone crushing hug.
"Good, good, how about you? And, who are these two? Did you have kids?" questioned Bombur.
"I DIDN'T HAVE KIDS!" screamed Bilbo.
"Uncle, please, calm down. It's bad for your blood pressure, you know that," said Frodo.
"Yes, I'm sorry, you're right my boy. Bombur, this is my nephew Frodo Baggins, and his best friend/my gardener, Samwise Gamgee," responded Bilbo.
"Ah, I see. So, what brings you to these parts?" asked Bombur.
"Well, I was just about to get to that. We were just at the Palace talking to Thorin, Fili and Kili. We were asking them if they'd like to come to Frodo's wedding!" answered Bilbo.
"Wait a minute there-" started Bombur.
"Yes, they were the two who went on the journey to throw the One Ring into Mount Doom," Bilbo said impatiently as he swatted the subject aside.
"The point is, we need to know if you're going to come or not!" exclaimed Bilbo.
"Of course! It would be an honor, Mr. Baggins and Mr. Gameboy is it?" said Bombur as he bowed so low that his moustache skimmed the ground (which is impressive because he usually falls over when he attempts to do this).
"Gamgee," corrected Sam.
"Oh sir, please, you don't need to bow down to us! We're just a couple of hobbits!" said Frodo.
"A couple of hobbits?!" boomed Bombur, "I'd bet all the cheese in the world that we'd probably all be dead right now if it weren't for you two right here!"
Frodo and Sam were lost for words as they blushed furiously.
"So, the wedding is on the 17th of August. We look forward to seeing you there!" interrupted Bilbo.
"Um, Bilbo, how will I-" began Bombur.
"We have that all covered, don't worry. Radagast, the wizard fellow with the huge rabbits," Bilbo added because of the look of confusion on Bombur's face, "will pick you up 10 days before the wedding."
"Ah, I see," spoke Bombur.
"So, we should be off then! Goodbye Bombur!" called Bilbo as their horses started walking again.
"Goodbye!" cried Bombur.
