This is my first attempt at a mix. I need any advise and opinions you guys can share

Pretty decent mix. Try putting on less reverb on the vocals, it's a bit too much for me.

A little heavy on the bass. It's upsetting the balance of the other instruments. Try adjusting the compression/EQ to add a little more attack and a little less body if you want to have it really prominent in the mix. Also a little of the 300-500 Hz needs to go away overall. (That's a range where sounds frequently like to just build up to lethal levels. usually wise to drop that a bit in most mixes and particularly lower parts like bass and kick/snare.) Percussion also seems to be a tad too forward.
Otherwise, you can hear all the parts and everything appears reasonably well balanced. For a first try, its definitely got a shot.
