Default Anybody recognize this vine?

Thanks BJ, pretty sure it's not a trumpet vine. I have one of those.

I was hoping that somebody with a better knowledge of Texas wild plants than
me would know for sure because I couldn't find it in my Texas Wildflowers
book and pix I found online didn't quite match.

I searched again today and found Pepper Vine - Ampelopsis bipinnata with pix
that look a lot more like my plant than some other pepper vine pix I found.
I think this could be it.

Looks like a trumpet vine to me..... If you don't want
it there now is the time to get it out of where it is at.
Can get very large and be very invasive.
