Am I WAY too late?

I just wanted to find out if I am dreaming or what... I wanted to have
my own pumpkins for Hallowe'en and so planted them later than you guys
have all done.  I planted according to the estimated time it takes to
have them full grown ACCORDING TO THE PACKAGING.  Now the vines are
growing so slow I am scared that I will be LUCKY to have pumpkins for
Thanksgiving.  I feel so disappointed.  My vines were taking off for a
while, but they seem to really grow slowly now.  I fertilize once a week
with 15/30/15.  They are getting less sun than I had expected them to. 
I live in Central Texas.  If I bought a grow light and put it on the
vines at night would it help?  I haven't got a single blossom.  Help!  I
want you guys to be honest so I can know what to expect, but I also want
to be as hopeful as I can.  Could I or should I fertilize more often?  

Any help you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks ever so much--
