Hello, this game I won, and there was some interesting tactics from the middle to the end when the queen gets in a bad position.  I am not sure if it was a good move to let the black queen take the pawn on b2.  I didn't make that many comments because I am a fairly new player.  Any help on what white should do different, or black would be great!

it was not a good idea to give up the b2 pawn.  Black is winning most of the rest of the way, Kd8 is a clear mistake.  I probably would have brought my knight to e7 instead of my bishop.  You played fine except for letting him have that little romp with his queen in your corner.
