Hello Evan,

I would look at start at the demos (dolfin/src/demo/pde). The 
mixedpoisson and stokes demos have vector elements, unfortunately in my 
quick test it looks like Nedelec hasn't been fully integrated in dolfin 
just yet. The convectiondiffusion demo gives some time stepping routines 
that might be helpful.
