"We ought to have a door so we could close it, and then it would be like a real house," Lola said.
"Couldn't we make one?" asked Ted.
"It would be hard to make a door fast to the snow sides of the house," answered Tom. "If we had a blanket we could hang it up for a curtain-door, though."
"I'll get one!" cried Janet, and she ran in to ask her mother for one.
The blanket was tacked to the edge of one of the boards in the roof, and hung down over the square that was cut out in the snow wall for the door. When the blanket was pulled over the opening it was as cozy inside the snow house as one could wish.
"And it's warm, too!" cried Ted. "I guess we could sleep here all night."
"But I'm not going to!" exclaimed Jan quickly. "Anyhow we haven't got anything to sleep on."
"We can make some benches of snow," Tom said. "Let's do it!"
"Well, we'll just bring in some snow and pile it up on the floor along the inside walls. Then we can cut it square and level on top, as high as we want it, and we can sit on it or lie down on it and make-believe go to sleep."
