Hi Cecelia,
There are quite a few reasons they might not be blooming including the variety as well as the soil. Here's an article that shares that information.

Good luck!
This quote from a Q & A site may answer your questions: "More often than not, Morning Glories will only produce buds and flowers on poor soil (i.e. if they feel their survival is threatened); if the soil is high in nitrogen and very fertile, they grow away, producing a lot of lush foliage and stubbornly refuse to flower. You did well not to add any fertilizer to the soil before planting, but I suspect that the manure you incorporated is the main culprit here; it has probably made your soil too rich." https://gardening.stackexchange.com/questions/1519/how-do-i-encourage-morning-glories-to-bloom
Maybe you don't get up early enough to see the morning glory flowers and are you taking a nap around 4 in the afternoon.? Sorry im trying to be funny but I guess this wasnt.
They need LOTS OF SUN.
