Hey! Not bad at all! 
Just a few small quibbles:
1. Vocals are just a wee bit too forward for my taste (though I do love that reverb you put on them
). I think their level is OK but you might want to dial back a little on the compression on them.
2. Backing vocal "oh-whoa-oh-ohs" could be a little louder in the early points in the song.
3. Snare feels a little muddy. I had the same problem with my mix; I found applying a hipass filter at 200 Hz on the overhead track cleared it up.
4. This is more personal taste but I think the strings during the quiet interlude towards the end need to come up a little. In fact, on this mix I might automate them; start them out at the level you have them at now then fade them in slowly until they're really big by the time the lead vocal starts again.
5. The bass track here has some unusually nice high frequency components; you might want to try some EQ boost at around 3000 Hz and even some air at 12 kHz to bring them out.
Other than that, though, this one is the best mix I've heard of this song so far. Nice!
