Answer
Dear sldz22, good morning. Yes, you have photographed a vine in the legume family. It may be Amphicarpaea bracteata (hog-peanut). You can confirm this by carefully unearthing one of the plants and seeking the one-seeded cleistogamous fruits that will be underground and appearing as tiny little tubers. Best wishes.
