Fjordan thanks for your input! Vanquish the Foul is good in its own right, but here it is lacking. My burn spells can take care of most creatures with 4 power (cause usually they don't have any more than 4 toughness), and Celestial Flare and Selesnya Charm take care of the rest. Vanquish could be good in place of Warleader's Helix being easier to cost, but then I lose the lifegain and ability to target a player with the damage.
I'm considering Plummet as a good option for flyer (stormbreath dragon!) hate in my sideboard if that starts to be too much of an issue.

Plummet is a GREAT choice. Really can't wait for you to roll this at FNM!

agreed. Plummet is the card i couldn't think of!! now if i made my deck back into g/w, i know what to use for removal. but i play g/w/b.

Maybe sideboarding Plummet for the angels, demons, and dragons?

Thanks all for the input and +1's! Greatly appreciated. This list is turning out pretty solid.
OFABass Thanks! Hoping to ruin some days with this deck here soon.
Cleaned up sideboard after most recent FNM. Played some casual against a friend's Elspeth RUW control deck and rolled it three games in a row. I like where this deck is sitting right now, especially against control (which is a large part of my local meta).
Any thoughts on Mistcutter Hydra or Skylasher for sideboard against control? Don't know what I would take out to make room.

Pretty good deck, not really a fan of Aurelia or Advent of the Wurm/Trostani, as needing to of each mana screw your mana fix up, specially since you are running 22 lands, other than that, deck looks great.
+1
