Buy a second tent and assemble it inside the first one, after lining the first one with those silver thermal blankets. The air space and the thermals between the two tents will act as insulation. The ground underneath both tents should also be lined with thermal blankets.
Then invest in a tent heater. Make sure you have a sleeping bag vetted for temperatures well below zero in case your tent heater gives out, and make sure it is long enough so that you can bury your head in it if temperatures plunge.
You should buy several large blue plastic tarps and anchor them at overhead on tree branches, sloping downward away from the tent, and around the tent entrance so that you almost have a hallway or entryway. Keep a bottle of de-icer inside the tent, so your zippers don't freeze shut.
A port a potti inside a cabin style tent in the second room is an important luxury if there is a snowstorm.
Make sure you have a VERY stable flat area where you can heat water or cook on a tiny sterno stove inside the tent, in case there are high winds and it is very cold.
Buy battery socks. They are just like wool socks, but made for hunters and outdoorsmen, there is a battery inside the socks that will warm your feet when you can't get them warm.
