if someone casts Yavimaya's Embrace on my creature
I take it back with mind control
does the creature still have the +2/+2 and trample from the Yavimayas Embrace?

Yes.
Fluttershy is best pony.
because I figure the mind control cancels the embrace, are you sure it can cancel just some of it and not the rest?
It doesn't "cancel" the Embrace at all. You have two effects that contradict each other in the same layer, so you apply the one with the later timestamp. However, Mind Control doesn't contradict the +2/+2 and trample at all, so that still applies.
