Read /usr/src/UPDATING. Always.

All the details can be found at <URL:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
>.

The short answer is:

# cd /usr/src
# make buildworld
# make kernel
<reboot, and get to single user with all local file systems mounted>
# cd /usr/src
# make installworld
# mergemaster
# reboot

Forgetting mergemaster tends to lead to failures, most notably with pam.
