The sun and the planets where created from a protoplanetary disk. When the sun "switched" on all the water within a certain radius sublimated and was driven out towards the outer edge whee it formed comets and Kuiper belt objects as well as coating moons etc.

The water was created when oxygen and hydrogen atoms combined...the same way that water was created here on Earth.
