                     Before GRATTON, Chief Judge; HUSKEY, Judge;

                  ________________________________________________

PER CURIAM
       Alex Thomas Gibson pled guilty to possession of a controlled substance. Idaho Code
§ 37-2732(c). The district court sentenced Gibson to a unified term of seven years with six
months determinate. Gibson appeals asserting that the district court abused its discretion by
imposing an excessive sentence.
       Sentencing is a matter for the trial court’s discretion. Both our standard of review and the
factors to be considered in evaluating the reasonableness of the sentence are well established and
need not be repeated here. See State v. Hernandez, 121 Idaho 114, 117-18, 822 P.2d 1011, 1014-


                                                1
15 (Ct. App. 1991); State v. Lopez, 106 Idaho 447, 449-51, 680 P.2d 869, 871-73 (Ct. App.
1984); State v. Toohill, 103 Idaho 565, 568, 650 P.2d 707, 710 (Ct. App. 1982). When reviewing
the length of a sentence, we consider the defendant’s entire sentence. State v. Oliver, 144 Idaho
722, 726, 170 P.3d 387, 391 (2007). Applying these standards, and having reviewed the record
in this case, we cannot say that the district court abused its discretion.
       Therefore, Gibson’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
