It would be pretty simple to transfer your files to an external USB drive, then connect the drive to your new Mac. Restore you files to the appropriate folders in the Mac's Home folder.
The Home folder is the one with the large House icon. It is located in /Macintosh HD/Users/ folder. It will have your username as the foldername.
