    You must create your own setup.py and then run it with py2exe:

    c:\my_python_scripts>python setup.py py2exe
    

    In your setup.py you import distutils, py2exe and show names of your scripts to compile. There is template for it. Then I usually create .bat file which compiles my scripts.

    Have you read py2exe tutorial?
