PER CURIAM
       Benjamin Alarcon-Sanguino pled guilty to possession of a controlled substance with the
intent to deliver. Idaho Code § 37-2732(a)(1)(A). The State agreed to recommend a sentence of
“no more than” a unified seven years with three years determinate, and that Alarcon-Sanguino be
placed on probation, or at worst, the district court would retain jurisdiction. At sentencing, both
the State and counsel for Alarcon-Sanguino asked the district court to follow the terms of the
plea agreement. The district court sentenced Alarcon-Sanguino to a unified term of seven years
with one and one-half years determinate. Alarcon-Sanguino filed a timely notice of appeal and
also a timely Idaho Criminal Rule 35 motion for reduction of sentence. The district court

                                                1
granted the Rule 35 motion by placing Alarcon-Sanguino on probation. 1 Alarcon-Sanguino
asserts that the district court abused its discretion by imposing an excessive sentence. The State
argues that the abuse of discretion in sentencing is barred by the doctrine of invited error.
       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-
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, Alarcon-Sanguino’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.

       Alarcon-Sanguino does not appeal from the order granting his Rule 35 motion and
challenges only the underlying sentence.
