Creeping, climbing, choking vine ID

I'm in Central Coastal Florida. This vine was originally only growing on my Arborvitaes. It climbed all the way to the top of them, so when we moved in, I pulled it all down. After a few years of this, it has started crawling through the grass in mostly part shade. It's so fragile, I can't pull it all up without breaking it.

I looked up Wild Grape. I don't think that's what this is. The leaves on mine are smooth on the edges, whereas the Wild Grape all seems to have... I don't know the right word... jagged, serrated, toothy edges to the leaves.
