PER CURIAM

In Docket No. 43986, Jennifer Nicole Magill pleaded guilty to sexual battery of a minor child sixteen or seventeen years of age, Idaho Code § 18-1508A, and sexual abuse of a child under the age of sixteen years, I.C. § 18-1506(1)(b). For each count, the district court imposed a unified sentence of fifteen years, with six years determinate, to run consecutively. In Docket No. 43987. Magill pleaded guilty to sexual exploitation of a child, I.C. § 18-1507(2)(1), and the district court imposed a unified sentence of ten years, with five years determinate, to run concurrently with the sentences in Docket No. 43986. Magill appeals, contending that her sentences are excessive.

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, Magill's judgments of conviction and sentences are affirmed.
